Keep Them Happy With A Southern Biscuits And Gravy Recipe

There is no doubt that a biscuits and gravy recipe will bring a smile to the faces of your whole family. These meals are designed to not only feed you and keep you warm in the morning, but they also offer a level of comfort at the same time. For many people, a good recipe will bring back memories of growing up, when a time was simpler, and the entire family had the chance to get together and enjoy themselves.

Think for a moment about what style of biscuits and gravy recipe you enjoy the most. There are a number of different kinds out there. Traditionally, a white sauce is used, but there are some people who choose to use a brown sauce instead. In place of sausage, in some cases, bacon will be used. Both are fine and work well in the morning routine.

Something you do need to keep in mind is that this mixture does burn very easily. You will want to avoid problems by ensuring you keep your temperature no more than medium high. That way, you will end up with a warm dish that does not get the flavors that sometimes occur with burnt gravy.

Keep in mind that people will also tend to make this mixture too thick or too thin, as they are not sure how this process is done. Know that when you add the milk into the mixture, this begins to cut down the thickness you are going for and will result in a thinner mixture then when the flour is being mixed in. You will want the mixture to appear thick and then add your milk in until you end up with the perfect biscuits and gravy recipe.

Above all, know that you can adjust any recipe to fit your needs as well. Use a recipe as the foundation for your creation and then take it to the next level by finding different elements you want to bring to it, so you can enjoy a delicious unique dish that your entire family goes crazy over.

How to Do It

Next, add your butter until it is melted then slowly add in your flour until it thickens the mix. Be sure to whisk it well. Then slowly pour your whole milk into the recipe, adding in small amounts until you have your gravy at the desired thickness, keep mixing it with your whisk to ensure it is well blended.
