When you
are thickening your gravy with flour or cornstarch, make
a paste with the cornstarch or flour by adding broth, wine
or water. Make sure that all the lumps are out of the paste
before adding the gravy.
*
Always use
a whisk when making your gravy. When adding the cornstarch
or flour paste, whisk rapidly so that the gravy will not
get lumpy.
*
Make
sure that all of the flour is cooked before serving your gravy.
Bring gravy to a boil after flour has been added; cook and
stir for 1 to 3 minutes.
*
Add
salt and pepper just before serving.
*
For
added flavor to your chicken or turkey gravy, add a can of
chicken broth to the gravy before adding the flour or cornstarch
paste.
Note: Gravy equals juices
from cooked meat.
