Ulog 155: 6-Ingredient Homemade Peppered Gravy Mix

Who's ready for some chicken fried steak for dinner? Or maybe some biscuits and gravy for breakfast? But what about the gravy? How're you going to make the smothering, delicious gravy?

Well this peppered gravy mix I make at home with five simple ingredients will suffice for both the above mentioned meals!

When I make up this mix, I lay a little low on the salt and pepper because you can always add more later when preparing the gravy for a meal; and you can't take away form it being over salty or peppery.

This recipe is super easy to make and only contains five ingredients.

Peppered Gravy Mix

• 2 1/2-cups white flour
• 1-cup powdered milk (NOT buttermilk)
• 3-tablespoons each of salt and pepper
• 1/2- cup corn starch
• 1/4-cup thyme (optional)

Whisk all ingredients together and store in a glass jar in your pantry.

• To use mix- take 3-5 tablespoons of the mix and add to pan with melted butter or oil to make a roux. Then add in 1-1/2 cup of milk. Whisk and make sure no lumps. Season with more salt and pepper as desired for taste preference.

This recipe will last quite some time; depending on how often you use it.
I've been using this recipe for many years. Here is the original recipe that I took this one from; but tweaked a little for our homestead preferences.
