    How to Make Brown Gravy from Scratch
    • (Part 2) How to Make B...
    Thanks for watching! In this video I'm showing you how easy it is to make brown gravy.
    ✨First you want to make the roux and season it.
    ✨Add your broth/stock.
    ✨Then add the other ingredients.
    💥Tips💥
    The flavor of your gravy will be determined by the BROTH/STOCK. Use high quality ingredients for best results! Cook your roux long enough to get rid of the flour taste. It should also turn brown.
    This wasn't stated in the video, but I recommend that you taste your broth/stock before using it! In the video I used a brand called "Simple Truth beef broth" (which was very weak). NOW I USE SWANSON BEEF BROTH WHICH IS THE BEST! So if your broth tastes weak, then you can add a little chicken or beef bouillon powder to kick up the flavor.
    ALWAYS taste as you go and build the flavor of your gravy to your desired preference. Add a dash of salt LAST.
    Please watch video demonstration.
    🔥Recipe🔥
    2 tbsp Unsalted Butter
    2 tbsp All Purpose flour
    1 Cup Beef or Chicken Stock/Broth
    1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
    Garlic powder *
    Onion powder *
    Black pepper *
    Thyme *
    Rosemary *
    Basil *
    Salt (dash)
    *Season to taste
    At time stamp 1:37 increase your heat.

    TYSM for this I never knew how to make this and tomorrow I will have mashed potatoes and gravy for lunch. The first time I messed it up because I used wheat flour, so it was already brown and I couldn't tell. But the second time I counted the minutes and then it turned out right.
