About Table spoon of gravey
A tablespoon of gravy is a savory condiment typically made from meat drippings, stock, flour, and seasonings, though variations may include milk, butter, or cream. Gravy originates from European cuisine and has become a staple in comfort food, especially in dishes like mashed potatoes, roasted meats, or biscuits and gravy. Nutritionally, it provides small amounts of protein and minerals like sodium from the stock but is often high in salt and fat due to added butter or animal fats. Commercially prepared gravies may contain preservatives and artificial flavors. While delicious, it’s best consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, particularly for those monitoring their sodium intake or seeking to reduce saturated fats. Opting for homemade versions allows for healthier customization, such as using low-sodium stock or incorporating whole-grain flour for added fiber.
