My Interests

• Giblet gravy has the giblets of turkey or chicken added when it is to be served with those types of poultry. • White gravy may contain milk or cream but most often it is simply meat drippings to which white flour has been added. This may also be known as country gravy or sawmill gravy. Sometimes little bits of meat are mixed into the gravy. • Redeye gravy is a gravy made from the drippings of ham fried in a skillet. The pan is deglazed with coffee or water. Coffee is the traditional method. A small amount of sugar is often added also. This gravy is a staple of Southern U.S. cuisine and is usually served over ham, grits or biscuits. • Tomato gravy is a gravy made from canned tomatoes, flour, and usually a small amount of fat. This is a Southern U.S. dish, usually served on meat, and not at all like Italian tomato sauces.
