Recipe Collection: Homemade Gravy

admin November 23, 2011

Written by Kate Tietjeturkey or biscuits and gravy, this recipe is one for the books.  Personally, I like to drench my mashed potatoes in gravy — yum!

Homemade gravy is so easy, even during the busy holiday season.  Really.  And it’s actually a really nourishing food.  Packaged gravy is full of modified food starch, MSG, and who-knows-what.  Do you really want to eat that?  And when homemade gravy isn’t any harder and is way yummier, you don’t have any excuses. 🙂

Homemade Gravy

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups chicken stock or drippings from a whole bird + water (or stock) to make 2 cups.
  • 2 tbsp. arrowroot powder (you can use double the amount of flour, but it’s smoother this way)
  • 1/2 tsp. onion powder
  • Sea salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Step 1: If using a whole bird, pour some water (about 1 cup) into the pan and scrape the dripping.  You can add 1/4 cup white wine, if desired, instead of using all water.

Step 2: Measure how much you have and add water or stock to make 2 cups.  Or, you can just use all the stock.

Step 3: Stir in the arrowroot and onion powder.

Step 4: Pour the mixture into a saucepan and add some salt.  Stir and cook over medium-high heat until the gravy becomes bubbly and thickened.

Step 5: That’s it!  Taste and add salt and pepper as desired.  It is so simple.
