• • My Notes: Tomato paste is sold in tubes (like toothpaste) for those times when you just need a tablespoon or two. Refrigerate after opening, and it will last a couple of months. If you need to open a can of tomato paste for this recipe, the excess can be easily frozen. Measure by the tablespoon into ice cube trays, freeze until solid, pop them out, then seal in a zip-top bag and store in the freezer.
• • Perfect Gravy Tips and Hints:.
• With a few tricks, you can turn out the best gravy ever. Below you will find tips and hints for making gravy and fixing it when or if things go wrong.
• 1• Lumpy gravy: Pour into blender and give it a whir for no more than thirty to sixty seconds. Do not overblend. Pour back into pot and reheat.
• 2• Instant mashed potato flakes will work as a thickener for gravy and produces no lumps. You may need extra salt.
• 3• Too salty: Try adding a pinch or brown sugar or a 1/4 teaspoon vinegar.
• 4• Use flours that are low in protein and high in starch, such as cake flour, pastry flour or all-purpose flour. This will help prevent any "skin" from forming on gravy as it sits.
• 5• When deglazing the pan, be sure to scrape up those bits clinging to the bottom of the pan. They increase the flavor of the gravy.
• 6• Constarch has twice the thickening power of flour.
• 7• Arrowroot has slightly more than twice the thickening power of flour.
• 8• Avoid making gravy in an aluminum (anodized is okay) pan as it can turn the gravy gray.
• 9• Liquid gravy browner can be added to gravy to improve color.
• 10• When adding liquid to the roux, add it slowly and whisk constantly to avoid lumping.
• 11• Whisking in a tablespoon of butter of heavy cream just before serving will give gravy a rich, satiny texture.
• 12• Adding a teaspoon of instant coffee granules or cocoa per two cups gravy enriches the flavor as well as adds color.
• 13• Cooked meat stores and freezes better in its gravy. The gravy keeps the meat from drying out.
