Yet the only gravy you can describe has roux in it.

see I have this weird knowledge of multiple types of gravy.


Why do you use a roux for a roast gravy and not a round steak gravy? THey are both a braised/meat drippings brown gravy.

if you lightly coat in flour though, what happens when it hits the hot oil then later dissolves in the liquid?


I don't normally coat my meat in flour before browning.

I make whatever I feel like that particular day. mainly dependent on what starch I cook. I like a thicker gravy on mashed potatoes, but I like a thinner gravy with rice. I usually make mashed potatoes with a roast and rice with something I smother on the stove.

I brought up a roux because bdevil, who has railed on using rouxs in gravy for years, said he makes his with a cornstarch slurry. if you're going to do that to thicken it, making a roux with the fat and adding it to the drippings is much better.

my entire point is acting like there's only one way to make gravy is pretty stupid. especially when you try to pimp a cornstarch slurry.

The only gravy you ever discuss (in very vague terms I might add) is your roux infusion. Yet you say everyone else only knows how to make one kind of gravy.

You've been acting like LNCHBOX on multiple boards all day, this is not a compliment. Is your wife withholding sex now too?

he couldn't refute facts I posted on another board so he takes a weak shot in a thread about gravy.
