Ingredients

For the gravy mix

1 cup instant nonfat milk powder
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons instant beef bouillon granules
1½ teaspoons dried thyme, crushed
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
½ teaspoon ground sage
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ cup unsalted butter (cold)
3 teaspoons brown sauce (for added depth)

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of flavors.

🥄 Tip: Use a whisk to prevent clumps and ensure a smooth consistency for your gravy mix!

Cut in the cold unsalted butter with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the brown sauce using a fork until evenly blended.
Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate. Your mix will stay fresh for 4-6 weeks!

🧊 Storage: Keeping your mix refrigerated not only preserves its flavor but also helps in maintaining the texture for creamy gravy.

To Use the Mix

In a saucepan, pour in 1 cup of cold water.
Whisk in ½ cup of your prepared beef gravy mix.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
Reduce the heat and simmer for about 3 minutes, or until smooth and thickened—stirring constantly to avoid lumps.

🍽️ Serving Suggestion: This gravy is heavenly over creamy mashed potatoes or as a sauce for your favorite meat dishes. Don't hesitate to jazz it up with sautéed mushrooms or onions for an extra touch of flavor!

Variations

Make it Vegetarian: Substitute the beef bouillon granules with vegetable bouillon for a plant-based alternative. 🌱
Extra Flavor: Add a splash of Worcestershire sauce when preparing the gravy to deepen the taste.
Herbed Version: Incorporate additional herbs like parsley or oregano for a fresher note.
Spicy Kick: A dash of cayenne pepper can spice things up if you’re looking for a little heat!
