Question: Is there some kind of gravy/sauce/broth that goes good over egg noodles!?
My grandma used to make these noodles that I loved!. They were just egg noddles with some kind of brown sauce/gravy/broth on them!. It wasn't thick though!. Could it have been just broth or grease or something that came off of the meat she was having!?!? Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Most brown sauces on noodles are made from beef grease!. Like if she was browning some hamburger meat, she would use the grease from that as the base!.

She would probably add some flour to the grease, about a tablespoon, then cook it down just a little bit!. Thats a basic roux!.
When that was done, she would add some beef broth, about 2 cups, and brought it to a boil!. That would thicken it up some, but not much!. Then she would add salt and pepper to taste!.
Essentially it is a brown gravy, just a very loose one!.

I'm not sure if thats what your grandma would do, but that was what mine did every thanksgiving!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

She might have used the juices from the meat she was cooking and thickened it slightly with cornstarch!. That would give it a clear look!. If you couldn't see through it, then she may have used a flour base (stirring water into flour until there are no lumps and slowly pouring it into the boiling liquid, whisking all the time until it thickens, adding more flour mixture if too thin and more liquid (water, broth, milk, whatever) if too thick!.

Hope that helps!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
