Savory Gravy

savory-gravy
A savory oil-free gravy for roasts, loaves, and potatoes.

Ingredients

 1 medium-sized onion, chopped
 2 ½ cups mushrooms, chopped (8 ounces)
 ½ cup unbleached flour or gluten-free flour
 6 cups water or vegetable stock
 ½ cup nutritional yeast
 ½ cup tamari sauce (gluten-free soy sauce)
 2 teaspoons onion powder
 1 ½ teaspoons dried sage
 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
 ½ teaspoon dried basil
 ½ teaspoon dried dill
 Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Instructions

1

Place half of the vegetables in a food processor and chop to a fine mince. Place in a bowl and repeat with remaining vegetables.

2

Place the vegetables in a non-stick skillet with a tablespoon of water or vegetable broth over medium-low heat. Sauté until they are golden brown, adding more water a teaspoon at a time, as needed, to prevent vegetables from sticking.

3

While vegetables are cooking, place flour, vegetable stock or water, nutritional yeast, tamari, and spices in a blender and pulse until mixed.

4

When vegetables are cooked, add liquid to pan. Whisk at medium-high heat continually until gravy thickens. If you don’t whisk while the gravy thickens, you could end up with lumpy gravy!
