Semi-homemade country gravy?!
I have a hard time making country gravy that actually tastes good!. I need some for chicken fried steak and I bought a packet of country gravy mix!. The recipe I have for homemade gravy says to use 2 tbs flour!.!. do you think if I use 2 tbs of the mix instead it will taste better and work!?!?!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
The gravy from the packets are the best!. Everyone always loves my biscuits and gravy, little do they know I use the packet gravy!. The packet has everything already in it flour and seasoning just add milk or water!. Milk will give it a more creamy taste!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Make a chicken gravy instead!. Packet gravy is wayyyyy to salty and yucky!.
Melt a couple tbsp of butter in a pan!. Sprinkle in some flour, you want it the consistency of wet sand!. Let it bubble just a few minutes!. Add some chicken stock or some chicken bullion and water!. Add canned milk!. The canned milk is very important, it is thicker and creamier!. Slowly add the liquid letting the gravy thicken after each addition!.
When you get the consistency you want add a little celery salt, seasoned salt, onion powder, and granulated garlic!. also a tiny bit of white pepper!.
The make brown/beef gravy use beef bullion/base and kitchen bouquet (it will color and lightly flavor the gravy)Www@FoodAQ@Com

The Country Gravy Mix that you buy is very very Peppery!. It is almost like a peppercorn gravy!. Country gravy is very simple to make!.!.!.Here is how to do it:
After you cook your chicken, remove it from the pan and keep it warm somewhere (oven)!. Your skillet will have a bunch of drippings in it, sprinkle your flour over the drippings and stir to make a goopey mess!. With your heat on Med-High, Slowly start adding milk into it as you stir!. When the milk starts to boil, lower the heat and cook for 2-3 minutes stirring constantly!. It will thicken as it cools!. Do a taste test and see how much salt or pepper you want to add!. Done!!
Good Luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com
