Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons clarified butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups beef stock
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
salt to taste
3 tablespoons merlot (such as Naked Grape® Unoaked Merlot), or to taste
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Whisk in flour to form a thick, foamy mixture. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, until flour has turned golden blonde in color, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat; let roux cool until warm, at least 10 minutes.
  • Return the saucepan to medium heat. Whisk beef stock into the roux. Bring to a simmer. Stir in parsley; add salt to taste. Stir in merlot 1 tablespoon at a time. Grind in black pepper to taste. Simmer until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.

This gravy was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my gravy turned out really thin. I think I might have added too much liquid.

I had some trouble getting the gravy to thicken, but after simmering it for a bit longer it eventually came together.

This gravy was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used a sweeter red wine. Next time I'll try using a dry red wine.
