Here is our homemade recipe for white gravy- it is easy and very adaptable to different recipes. Start with a couple of tablespoons of butter melted in a pan, then add finely chopped up turnips (yes, turnips- they are delicious- trust me!), sautee for a couple of minutes, then add 2 tablespoons of flour and whisk it all together- it will be very thick and a bit hard to whisk. Then you slowly add milk- about 1 cup give or take some depending on how thick you like your gravy. Whisk this often until desired thickness- that's it! Very simple yet, delicious and not so unhealthy! You can add salt and pepper to taste when sauteeing turnips. We use this recipe to put over chicken, pork, mashed potatoes, rice, broccoli- whatever you want- biscuits- yummy! Our boys love it! If you are cooking meat- just cook the meat in the pan first, then take meat out and you can start your gravy with pan drippings- sometimes you need to add a little more butter and/or wine to get drippings off of the pan. Last night- we used this recipe to make an alfredo sauce. I followed this same recipe, then added some chopped carrots, broccoli, and then at very end added our homemade ricotta cheese. It turned out wonderful!
Incubator update- we are on day 17- tomm. will be the last day of turning- then it is a wait and see game through day 21- hopefully we get some baby chicks!! Our eggs are so dark brown, we have not had much luck candling them to see if any growth was happening. So for us, it will be a big surprise!!
More to come on this!
