Gravy Ingredients
Method
Gravy Directions
Prepare the Roux
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.
Add Flour
Once the butter is melted and bubbling, whisk in the all-purpose flour. Continue to whisk constantly for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture turns a light golden brown color.
Incorporate the Broth
Slowly pour in the beef broth while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Make sure to scrape the bottom of the pan to incorporate any browned bits for additional flavor.
Season the Gravy
Add the soy sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine all the ingredients thoroughly.
Thicken the Gravy
Allow the gravy to simmer over medium-low heat for about 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Serve
Once thickened, remove the gravy from heat. If desired, garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Serve warm over meats, mashed potatoes, or your favorite dishes.
