Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 c "cold" water *
2 Tbsp corn starch (a.k.a. corn flour)
2 Tbsp chicken bouillon powder
1 Tbsp italian seasoning
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp black pepper, ground

Steps:

  • 1. In a 1 quart saucepan, pour in the cold water. Add remaining ingredients and whisk.
  • 2. Place pan on the stove, on medium heat, and constantly stir until gravy comes to a boil. Continue to boil for 1 minute, remove from heat and serve.
  • 3. Makes 2 cups (8 "1/4 cup" servings) This is great on rice, potatoes, stuffing or anything you like gravy on.
  • 4. * NOTE: Make sure the water is cold when you start. If you add dry corn starch to warm liquids, you end up with big clumps of goo and not a smooth gravy. At this point it can't be saved, dump it out and start over.
