Ultimate Vegan Gravy

Step 1

In a saucepan, combine the rice, mushrooms, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

Carefully transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. (Alternatively, leave the mixture in the pan and use an immersion blender to blend until smooth.)

Step 4

If necessary, return the mixture to the pan. Add the sage, marjoram, thyme, garlic, lime juice, pepper, and salt to taste.

Step 5

Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes to blend the flavors. Cover to keep the gravy warm, and serve with mashed potatoes, biscuits, or whatever dish calls for great gravy.
