What it is
This is a dry powder mix designed to create a rich chicken gravy. It contains dehydrated chicken flavorings and seasonings, along with starches to thicken the sauce when water is added.

To prepare the gravy, simply combine the dry mix with the recommended amount of cold water in a saucepan. Whisk the mixture thoroughly to ensure there are no lumps.
