DIRECTIONS
- NOTE: Use beef, chicken, or turkey, and broth can be mixed with pan drippings.
- Heat broth.
- In a medium skillet melt butter with peanut oil, add flour, and slowly brown to a dark golden brown (you need to keep an eye on this as it may brown too quickly).
- Slowly add broth, stirring constantly with a whisk.
- Add spices, cook slowly, stirring often, for 20 minutes.
- The cooking time is very important. Flour will have a bitter taste if not completely cooked. This is worth the time.
- If gravy is too thick, it can be thinned with broth to desired consistency.
