Instructions

  1. Use a microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup. Add the stock and the bouillon cubes, then heat for 1 minute and stir. Repeat heating until the bouillon is dissolved.
  2. In a saucepan over medium-high heat melt the butter. Add the flour, thyme, and sage and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the hot stock/bouillon cube until smooth. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cook, whisking, until smooth and thick, about 1 minute.
  3. Remove from heat, then salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Smooth Gravy Tips:
  • Whisk whisk whisk. Your wrist will get a good workout, but it will be well worth it.
  • Add the liquid slowly and whisk.
  • Keep warm. The gravy thickens as it cools. You want the gravy to have a creamy texture, but if it becomes too cool it will take on a pudding-like texture.
  • Thicken. Add some gravy to a separate bowl and whisk in flour. Once it is smooth pour it into the main pot of gravy and whisk. 
  • To thin it out add more broth.
