Homemade Country Gravy Mix

I’m sick thinking of all the times I’ve fed that packaged gravy mix to my family🤢

I decided to make my own country gravy mix to allow a little convenience while still aligning with our ingredient household and avoid all that harmful junk!

Ingredients:

* 2 cups all-purpose flour

* 1 cup dry milk powder

* 1/4 cup cornstarch

* 1 tbs ground black pepper

* 1 tbs sea salt

* 1 tbs onion powder

* 1 tsp poultry seasoning

Mix all ingredients in a bowl until well combined, then store in air-tight container in cool, dry place for up to 6 months.

To make gravy:

-Melt 2 tbs butter over medium heat.

-Add 3 tbs mix and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

-Gradually add 1 cup water or milk, continuously whisking until gravy thickens.

... Read moreMaking homemade country gravy mix not only allows you to control the ingredients but also empowers you to create a richer flavor profile. By using freshly sourced all-purpose flour, dry milk powder, and seasonings like ground black pepper, onion powder, and poultry seasoning, you ensure a wholesome and tasty result. To enhance the gravy experience, consider pairing it with classic comfort foods such as mashed potatoes, biscuits, or fried chicken. The versatility of homemade gravy mix means you can adjust the seasoning levels to match your palate. Additionally, opting for minimal processing at home reduces the reliance on pre-packaged mixes, which often contain useless additives, stabilizers, and high sodium levels. For a unique twist, you can customize the herbs used in your gravy mix. Trying fresh thyme, parsley, or garlic powder can elevate your dish like never before. Moreover, storing the mix in a cool, dry place not only extends shelf life but also keeps the flavors vibrant for future uses. This homemade gravy mix is not only economical but also environmentally friendly, as it reduces packaging waste associated with store-bought alternatives. Encouraging family cooking sessions to prepare homemade meal bases can turn pantry staples into cherished family traditions. Dive into this simple yet rewarding cooking endeavor and enjoy the satisfaction of crafting something homemade!
