It stays white, doesn't get brown. I know, crazy, right? Maybe this is why I didn't have it until 20 years old. The concept is kind of foreign (no pun intended). The only constant in making a gravy is the roux (ROO), the mixture of fat and flour (or cornstarch). The liquid and seasonings are up for grabs. I made a mango gravy for the joust last month.<BR/><BR/>Check it out: http://niksnacks.blogspot.com/2008/07/royal-foodie-joust-august.htmlNikki @ NikSnackshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09756950048513201740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5026858070116639860.post-82836925916103235312008-08-26T10:06:00.000-04:002008-08-26T10:06:00.000-04:00I don't get it!Gravy is made with meat juices, rig...I don't get it!<BR/><BR/>Gravy is made with meat juices, right?

I feel like a few lines were erased, somehow. Anyway, Biscuits and Gravy. I just don't get it. I love Biscuits and I love Gravy but something about the combination of the two just doesn't sound appealing, but then I gotta say...if you say it is good then I have to wonder. I mean, you do know your stuff. Maybe I'll give it a try.One Man’s Opinionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10369070920453105981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5026858070116639860.post-3389450238659377522008-08-24T16:37:00.000-04:002008-08-24T16:37:00.000-04:00You know, I have avoided biscuits and gravy my who...You know, I have avoided biscuits and gravy my whole life...but I'd eat yours! :)Thistlemoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17898600488153652504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5026858070116639860.post-18000028187153720932008-08-24T16:35:00.000-04:002008-08-24T16:35:00.000-04:00CC: California version?
