    Old diner tip- My MIL used to work in a diner and told me if you want your brown gravy dark just sprinkle in a little freeze dried/instant coffee. It does not change the flavor at all and just looks darker. I've been doing that for years.

      broth is used in making soups whereas stock is used in making gravy. The reason is stock is made from bones so you have collagen and marrow which have thickening quality, broth is made from meat so it’s thin but has a more intense flavor

    This was really interesting. English woman here 🇬🇧 and I’ve often wondered what all these gravy’s you use are. For us there are two types of gravy, the ready to use bisto, just add boiling water in a jug type you’d pour over your meat, potatoes and veg for a quick gravy on a midweek meal or proper gravy made from the meat juices from a roast where you pour off excess fat, put your roasting tin on the hob, add plain flour, mix to incorporate everything until smooth, add boiling water and season to taste. Your white gravy to us is a rue sauce, butter, plain flour and milk and is the foundation for many sauces like adding dill for fish or adding cheese for macaroni cheese etc. I’m going to try to portion your gravy’s down to a single serving to give them a try as I love the idea of having different ready to use in my larder. Thank you ❤

    Thanks for the recipes. I usually make mine right in the pan as I need it because I am one person only. These 3 are great if you have people over for dinner as it will make a larger quantity.
    I also really like Onion White Sauce by sauteeing some thinly sliced onion slivers in butter until golden and soft, add some flour or cornstarch so you have a thick paste and it 'cooks' while stirring, then add some water or chicken bouillon (from powder). Stir and thicken and can sieve out the onions for picky eaters who do not like the onion bits or eat as is over something. Yum to all gravies and sauces!

      Someone else asked this too. I’m not an expert and I’ve never substituted it, but from what I’ve read, it may not work in large amounts. Most things say use half as much cornstarch than you would flour, but I honestly have no idea if it will work. Please let me know if you do try it😊

    I really like these gravy and soup mixes. The bouillon mix is a great idea since i buy nootch in bulk to get the best price. I use nootch in nearly all my soups and stews to add nutrition and flavor. I also have dehydrated mushrooms that I could grind into powder to add to the bouillon mix, maybe cutting the nutritional yeast by a quarter cup to yield the same volume.
