How to Make Pan Gravy

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
  2. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour until smooth. (Use equal parts butter and flour for perfect consistency)
  3. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture is lightly golden and fragrant (this is called a roux).
  4. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of cold milk, ensuring no lumps form.
  5. Continue whisking until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency, about 2-3 minutes. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
