How to Make Gram's Ham Gravy
- Heat 2 cups of ham drippings in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup cold water until smooth. This creates a slurry to prevent lumps.
- Gradually whisk the flour slurry into the boiling ham drippings. Whisk continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
- Continue whisking until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency, about 2-3 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or more, to taste). Add a dash of gravy master for enhanced color and flavor, if desired.
- If any lumps remain, strain the gravy through a fine-mesh sieve for a perfectly smooth finish. Gram called them 'lumps of love,' but we understand the desire for a smooth texture!
