Details
Preparation
Step 1
Melt butter over medium heat in a small sauce pan.
Sprinkle flour over the butter and stir until the flour completely absorbs the butter to create a roux, which will thicken the gravy.
Cook the roux for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. This eliminates the raw flour flavor from the mixture.
Whisk beef broth into the roux. Bring mixture to a boil, whisking frequently so there are no lumps.
Reduce heat to medium low. Continue cooking and whisking the gravy until it starts to thicken and is completely smooth. Add fresh-ground pepper to taste.
Remove gravy from the heat and allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving. The gravy thickens the more it cools.
