About Creamy gravy

Creamy gravy is a rich and velvety sauce made from a base of milk or cream, thickened with flour or cornstarch, and often seasoned with butter, salt, pepper, and occasionally herbs or spices. Commonly associated with Southern American cuisine, this indulgent topping is traditionally paired with biscuits, mashed potatoes, or meats. Its origins can be traced back to simple, hearty cooking styles that emphasize comfort and flavor. While creamy gravy provides a satisfying dose of warmth and taste, it is typically high in calories, fat, and sodium, especially when made with whole dairy and butter. However, some variations use lower-fat milk or plant-based alternatives for a lighter version. While it offers little in terms of vitamins or minerals, enjoying creamy gravy in moderation can be part of a balanced diet when paired with nutrient-rich foods.
