Cracked Pepper Gravy Recipe
Generally, we do not like using butter in our gravy but it seems to work with this one. Prepare cracked pepper by placing whole peppercorns in a food processor or blender and pulse once or twice just enough to crack them. Do not grind into a powder.
Ingredients
* 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter* 5 Tablespoons flour
* 2-1/2 cups milk
* 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
* 4 tsp. cracked pepper
Directions
1. Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan. Make a roux by slowly whisking in the flour. Continually whisk until the flour desolves into a light brown paste.2. Slowly whisk in the milk, stirring constantly. Add salt and pepper. Simmer gravy for 10 minutes until it thickens.
3. Strain gravy to remove the large peppercorn pieces and serve hot.
