Cream of Mushroom Gravy is a rich and savory sauce made from sautéed mushrooms, onions, and garlic, blended with flour, butter, and milk or cream to achieve its signature velvety texture. Often seasoned with herbs like thyme or parsley, this decadent gravy pairs beautifully with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or meat dishes. Originating from European cuisine, it has become a versatile addition to comfort food recipes worldwide. Mushroom-based gravies contain nutrients such as B vitamins and antioxidants found in the mushrooms, offering some health benefits. However, its high calorie, fat, and sodium content—especially when made with heavy cream or salt—can be a concern for those on restricted diets. Its hearty flavor makes it an indulgent option that works best when consumed in moderation or tailored with lighter substitutions like low-fat milk or plant-based alternatives.
