Pork Gravy

Step 1

Scrape all the drippings out of the roasting pan into a medium sized saucepan, making sure to scrape the bottom of the pan to get all the brown bits off.

Step 2

Add in the chicken broth.

Step 3

Bring to a boil in the saucepan.

Step 4

Simmer for 4-5 minutes, cooling some in a small bow to taste-test. If desired, add more chicken broth at this point.

Step 5

Simmer until the gravy reaches the desired strength of flavor. Salt and pepper to taste.

Step 6

Whisk the cornstarch into the water, then whisk into the gravy, slowly, only adding enough until it reaches your desired thickness.

Step 7

Remove from the heat and serve in a gravy boat.

Step 8

Tips: make a strong chicken broth from cubes or powdered stock to really infuse the flavor.
