Gravy using Broth
The broth used: canned, homemade broth, etc.... or even made from bouillon/water.....
Many kinds to choose from, such as chicken, beef, turkey, pork. This recipe makes a more 'clear' gravy because we are using corn starch (flour gravies are a more 'cloudy' type gravy).
​
​
2 c. broth (can also use drippings from a roast: add water to equal 2 c.)
up to 1/2 tsp. garlic granules
up to 1/2 tsp. onion granules or powder
up to 1 tsp. or so worcestershire sauce (optional)
​
1/4 cup cold water + 3 tablespoons corn starch
salt and pepper to taste
​
In a medium sauce pan bring broth choice to boiling over medium-high heat. Mix garlic powder, onion powder, worcestershire sauce (optional), with the 1/4 c. cold water, then
add the corn starch and stir until dissolved. Pour this mixture into the boiling broth while stirring with whisk; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook/stir for a minute or two, even if it is already thickened. Season with salt and pepper to personal taste.
