Butter and roux and cornstarch I knew. The bread crumbs or potato I never thought of but good to know in a pinch! Thanks Akis 🙂

I'm not sure about the mashed potatoes

Ok, so I use corn flour (being English) and a little water in a cup but the potato is inspirational.

I've done the cornstarch and water one...and the roux one. The others are new to me.

And how would this work for sauces like Bechamel or tomato. The roux one would work for Bechamel, but I think tomato is just letting it simmer and reduce for a while (though the breadcrumbs one would work, provided a chef or dyed-in-the-wool Italian mother doesn't rag on you for it).

Arrowroot, does anyone use it? Isn't arrowroot a better alternative over GMO cornstarch. Here in USA it would seem so....
