re: Olives in a Gravy

quote:

---

Red Gravy= a gravy that has reddish-brown tint to it because you browned a small amount of tomato paste/sauce in it to give it a little color ie. Sausage or tasso in a red gravy.

You'll also throw in a piece of browned pork as well, making the term, gravy, technically correct.

My sicilian grandmother would sometimes use pork feet, which she called "pedi de porca". Good good stuff.
