Homemade Gravy
My Aunt gave me my grandmothers old cookbooks. 1 of the cookbooks is Quick Dishes for the woman in a hurry. In the cookbook it is called medium white sauce.
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine (shortening works fine too)
- 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- few grains pepper (I like a lot of black pepper in mine)
- 1 cup of milk (water is a great substitute that I normally use)
Directions:
- Melt butter or margarine in a saucepan over low heat.
- Blend in flour, salt, and pepper.
- Heat until mixture bubbles.
- Remove from heat and add milk (water) gradually.
- Cook rapidly, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens. (If it because too thick, add a little bit more water)
- Use for gravies and creamed mixtures.
