Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until fully melted and gently bubbling.
Add the flour to the saucepan, whisking constantly for about 1-2 minutes to create a smooth roux. The mixture will appear golden and paste-like.
Gradually pour in the milk while continuously whisking to prevent lumps. Ensure the milk is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
Reduce the heat to low and continue whisking for 5-7 minutes, or until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.
Season the gravy with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Remove the saucepan from heat and serve the gravy immediately over warm biscuits, fried chicken, or mashed potatoes.
