Better Than Bouillon Gravy Recipe (Step-by-Step)
This Better Than Bouillon gravy recipe transforms the concentrated paste into silky, restaurant-quality gravy in under 10 minutes. Start by heating 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute to eliminate the raw flour taste. Gradually add 2 cups of warm water while whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Add 2 teaspoons of Better Than Bouillon chicken or beef base (your choice) and whisk until completely dissolved. The gravy will thicken as it simmers for 3-5 minutes. Season with black pepper to taste – you likely won’t need salt since Better Than Bouillon is already well-seasoned. For richer gravy, substitute half the water with milk or heavy cream. This recipe yields about 2 cups of gravy, perfect for mashed potatoes, biscuits, or roasted meats.
