Okay folks - this is it, the vegan and gluten-free gravy you've all been waiting for! All your favourite gravy flavours are simmered into a savoury broth that is thickened with corn starch. All your vegan and gluten-free poutine, mashed potatoes, and just general happy dreams will come true.
- 2 cups broth
- 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
- 2 tbsp tamari
- 6 sage leaves
- 6 sprigs of thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 yellow onion, quartered
- 2 cloves of garlic, quartered
- 2 tbsp vegan butter
- 3-4 tbsp corn starch + a couple tbsp cold water
-
In a medium pot over medium-high heat, bring all the ingredients except for the corn starch to a boil.
-
Turn the heat down to low, and let the broth simmer--covered--for roughly 30-45 minutes. It'll still taste great if you only have 15 minutes to simmer, but use that extra time if you have it.
-
Strain the broth, making sure to squeeze out all the broth and juice from the onions. Place the broth back over low heat.
-
In small dish, mix the corn starch and a couple tablespoons of cold water. Once it is all dissolved, slowly whisk the slurry into the broth.
-
Continue to simmer until the (now gravy!) thickens, about 2 minutes.
-
Serve immediately and enjoy!!
