I make this one all the time. My G'pa likes it better than " real " gravy.

 

Peace,

Vegan Gravy*

 

1/4 cup vegetable oil or mild olive oil (taste)

3 cloves of garlic, squashed and minced very well

2-3 slices of yellow onion, chopped fine

1/4 cup all-purpose white flour

4 teaspoons nutritional yeast

1-2 tablespoons low- or reduced-sodium soy sauce (to taste)

1-2 tablespoons Kitchen Bouquet for coloring, if desired

2 cups broth or shiitake water (if you save & freeze your shiitake soaking

water)

sage to taste

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

5 or 6 mushrooms, sliced (optional)

extra flour or cornstarch (if needed)

 

Method:

Measure the oil into a small saucepan. Cook the garlic and onion in it for

about two minutes on medium or medium-low heat, until the onion is a bit tender

and translucent. Add the flour, yeast, and soy sauce to make a paste. Add the

water/broth gradually, stirring constantly. Bring the gravy to a boil on medium

to medium-high heat, stirring constantly -- the gravy has to boil for it to

thicken. Add pepper. Stir in the sliced mushrooms, if desired. Add Kitchen

Bouquet, if desired. If the gravy is too thin for your taste, add one or two

tablespoons of flour or small amounts of cornstarch to thicken it and add

home-made-looking lumps.

 

 

Notes:

This gravy takes about ten minutes to prepare.

 

It is very flexible, reduce or add more spices or mushrooms to your taste.

 

This gravy refrigerates well. Freezing is not recommended. The cooled gravy

re-heats well in the microwave or on the stove.

 

* Not made with real vegans.
