Equipment
- Small saucepan
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter (or substitute bacon fat)
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Melt butter in a small saucepan set over medium heat, then whisk in flour. Continue cooking while whisking for two minutes.
- Slowly add milk in batches while continuing to whisk, to prevent lumps.
- Add black pepper and salt and bring gravy to a simmer. Cook until the gravy has thickened to your liking, then serve immediately.
Notes
If the gravy is too thin, just simmer it longer. If it gets too thick, it can be thinned out with a dribble of water or milk.
