Brown Gravy

Brown Gravy

Everyday

Brown gravy is a savory sauce traditionally made from meat drippings, broth, and a starch thickener like flour or cornstarch. This umami-rich condiment develops deep flavor through caramelized pan residues from roasted meats, though vegetarian versions often substitute mushroom or vegetable stock. While it enhances dishes like mashed potatoes and roasted meats, commercial varieties may contain high sodium levels and preservatives compared to homemade preparations.
