My homemade gravy recipe is quick and easy. If you’ve roasted chicken, turkey, or beef, use the drippings left in the roasting pan. They make the gravy extra flavorful and seasoned. You can also make gravy without drippings and put stock or broth in its place. Store-bought stock is usually underseasoned. Take care when seasoning with salt and pepper towards the end of the recipe. Finally, for more flavor, whisk in mushroom powder. This is optional but adds a deep, savory flavor.
Ingredient:
- 4 tablespoons (58g) unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup (32g) all-purpose flour
- 3 cups warm stock (poultry, beef, or vegetable) or use pan drippings, see tips below
- 1/2 teaspoon mushroom powder, optional
- 1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs or 1/2 teaspoon dried herbs (try sage, thyme or rosemary)
- 2 to 3 tablespoons cream, optional
- Sea salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
