THE PIONEER WOMAN’S SAUSAGE GRAVY
To prepare The Pioneer Woman’s sausage gravy, the first step involves selecting high-quality breakfast sausage. The choice of sausage is crucial, as it sets the foundation for the flavor of the gravy.
Typically, a mild or spicy pork sausage is used, depending on personal preference. The sausage is crumbled and cooked in a skillet over medium heat until it is browned and fully cooked. As the sausage cooks,
it releases its flavorful fat, which will be used to create the gravy.
Once the sausage is browned, it is important to leave some of the rendered fat in the skillet, as this fat is essential for the gravy’s richness.
The next step is to create a roux, which is a mixture of fat and flour that serves as a thickening agent for the gravy.
