Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 tablespoons butter (can sub Earth Balance [see Vegan Option])
1/2 cup finely diced yellow onion
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 tablespoon Tamari or soy sauce (optional)
Salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter.
  • Add the onion and a pinch of salt. Sweat the onions, stirring occasionally, until tender, 8-10 minutes. If they start to turn brown, turn down the heat - you're looking for translucent and tender, not golden.
  • Increase heat to medium. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring frequently, for three minutes.
  • Gradually stir in the vegetable broth and continue stirring, over medium heat, until thickened to a gravy consistency, about 3 - 4 minutes.
  • Stir in Tamari or soy sauce if using. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.

VEGETARIAN GRAVY

Categories     Sauce     Onion     Vegetable     Side     Roast     Thanksgiving     Vegetarian     Fennel     Root Vegetable     Carrot     Turnip     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield About 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 medium onion, peeled, quartered, and broken into large chunks
1 large carrot, peeled and halved lengthwise
1 fennel bulb, green fronds removed and bulb cut into quarters
1 medium turnip, peeled and cut into quarters
5 ounces mushrooms, such as crimini or shiitake, trimmed and cut into quarters (about 2 cups total)
4 medium tomatoes, cut into quarters and seeded
15 sprigs fresh or 2 teaspoons dried thyme
3 cups of vegetable broth or water
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, chervil, or tarragon (optional)
For thickening (optional):
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Spread the vegetables and thyme in a single layer in a dry heavy-bottomed flameproof roasting pan. Roast until any juices released by the vegetables have caramelized on the bottom of the pan, about 2 hours. Stir the vegetables using a wooden spoon to scrape up the crust on the bottom and sides of the pan. Continue roasting, stirring occasionally, until there is a brown crust covering the bottom of the pan, about 1 hour.
  • Transfer the pan to the stove and add 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil, and continue boiling until the water dries out and caramelizes on the bottom of the pan, 3 to 5 minutes. With the pan over high heat, continue to caramelize the vegetables for 10 more minutes, adding drops of water to any dry spots and using a wooden spoon to scrape up the crust forming on the bottom of the pan.
  • Add 3 cups of vegetable broth or water to the roasting pan and bring to a simmer while scraping the caramelized juices on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Continue simmering and scraping for about 1 minute.
  • Pour the liquid and vegetables through a fine-mesh strainer set over a blender, pushing down on the vegetables to release their juices. Add about 3/4 cup of the vegetables to the blender (discard the remaining vegetables) and purée on high for 1 minute. Strain the gravy again, pushing on any remaining solids to help thicken the gravy. Season to taste with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley, chervil, or tarragon, if desired. DO AHEAD: Gravy can be made ahead and kept covered in the refrigerator, up to 3 days. Reheat in a small saucepan over moderate heat.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use vegetable broth instead of water.
  • Add a tablespoon of nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor.
  • If you like your gravy thicker, add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water).
  • For a smoky flavor, add a teaspoon of smoked paprika.
  • For a creamy texture, add a tablespoon of sour cream or unsweetened plant-based yogurt.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, or thyme.

Conclusion:

Vegetarian white gravy is a versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes, from mashed potatoes to roasted vegetables. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and flavorful gravy that will impress your family and friends.
