Gravy Ingredients
- 2 cups Chicken broth, reduced sodium (or turkey drippings; strained)
- 2 tbsp Tapioca flour
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp Sea salt (to taste)
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper (optional, to taste)
- Melt butter: In a large saucepan or saucier over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until fully liquified and slightly bubbling.
- Create thickening paste: Reduce the heat to low. Gradually sprinkle the tapioca flour into the pan and whisk thoroughly until a smooth paste forms with no lumps.
- Add broth: Slowly pour in the chicken broth or turkey drippings while continuously whisking to blend the mixture seamlessly.
- Simmer and thicken: Increase the heat to bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes or until the gravy thickens to your preference.
- Season: Stir in sea salt and black pepper to taste, adjust seasoning as desired before serving.
Notes
- Use reduced sodium broth to better control the saltiness in your gravy.
- Tapioca flour acts as an excellent gluten-free thickener, providing a glossy finish.
- For a richer flavor, turkey drippings can be used instead of chicken broth.
- Whisk continuously while adding broth to avoid lumps.
- The gravy can be kept warm on low heat or reheated gently without breaking.
