I like how American gravy has gotten so fat that the br*t pretends it's a basic liquid. War rations slobs
Gravy is pretty traditional, like it's always just been fat and thickeners as far as I know
Drippings, butter, flour, seasoning.
You can omit drippings for milk if you want white gravy
How the fuck do you end up with something clear?
Use cornstarch or potato starch instead of a flour-based roux and omit milk or cream. The sauce will become less opaque.
Using starch instead of a roux makes the mouthfeel less rich and more gel-like, if that makes sense. Not using cream or milk gives a sharper, less rounded, less rich taste.
I had gel-like gravy once, I assumed they fucked up something up or it came out of a can. Why would anyone intentionally do that?
Best gravy I've made had caramelized onions blended in.
IDK wtf is even in OP picture, do you guys call maple syrup gravy or something?
I've never seen any type of gravy you could see through.
I know you call crackers biscuits.
British gravy is typically more like what would be called "au jus" in the US.
The worst language, just read it it's so weird and unnecessarily complex while also being bad at describing anything more complicated than basic information.
And even there you get shit like this
The Brits are definitely in a position to make fun of other people's cuisine
And I'm sure there's great Vietnamese in the US if you know the right places
The US has good Korean and Japanese food too! I wonder if these things are related.
Are you telling me brits don't have the equivalent of American gravy or American biscuits?
I just assumed you just had a different word for the same thing, like "soccer" vs "football", "windscreen" vs "windshield or "gun" vs "rooty tooty pointy and shooty"
Lol I don't think so, I don't live there so idk but I am half English. Never seen a real pic of biscuits with gravy
God that looks so gross. puts some melted cheese on it Omg I would destroy that
