What it is
This is a convenient powder made from dried ingredients designed to create a smooth and flavorful chicken-flavored gravy. It is formulated without common allergens, making it suitable for those with specific dietary needs. The granules dissolve easily in hot water, quickly transforming into a rich sauce ready to enhance meals. It offers a quick way to add depth and savory notes to a variety of dishes.
How people cook with it
This gravy is a versatile addition to many meals, providing a classic savory flavor.
- To serve with roast chicken
- To enhance shepherd's pie
- To drizzle over mashed potatoes
- To accompany sausages
To prepare, simply measure the desired amount of gravy granules into a heatproof jug or bowl. Add boiling water gradually, stirring continuously with a whisk or spoon. Continue to stir until all the granules have dissolved and the gravy has reached your preferred consistency. For a thicker gravy, use fewer granules or a little less water. For a thinner consistency, add a small amount of extra hot water. It can also be added to pan juices for extra flavor.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike liquid gravies that require refrigeration and have a shorter shelf life, these granules are shelf-stable. They offer a quick preparation time compared to making gravy from scratch, and the 'free from' formulation caters to specific dietary requirements.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a quick and easy way to add a savory chicken flavor to their dishes, especially those managing dietary restrictions.
How to keep the rest
Once opened, store the remaining granules in a cool, dry place, tightly sealed in their original packaging or an airtight container. This will help to maintain their quality and prevent clumping. Ensure the lid is securely fastened after each use.
