How to Make Great Mushroom Gravy

  1. In a medium saucepan, toast 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour over low heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly until fragrant.
  2. Remove from heat and whisk in 1 cup of water, 2 tablespoons of tamari (or soy sauce), and 1 teaspoon of garlic granules until smooth.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, stirring frequently.
  4. Once the gravy begins to thicken slightly (about 5 minutes), whisk in 2 tablespoons of tahini and mix thoroughly.
  5. Add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms (cremini, button, or shiitake work well) to the gravy and stir to combine.
  6. Reduce heat to low, cover the saucepan, and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender.
  7. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve immediately over your favorite dish!
