Mushroom gravy is a savory sauce made primarily from mushrooms, broth, and seasonings, such as garlic, onion, and herbs like thyme or parsley. Often thickened with flour or cornstarch, it offers a rich and earthy flavor that pairs well with dishes like mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and meats. Popular in Western cuisines, particularly American and European comfort food traditions, mushroom gravy showcases the natural umami of mushrooms. Nutritionally, it can be a source of B vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber, depending on the amount and type of mushrooms used. However, its healthiness may vary based on preparation; recipes with excessive butter, cream, or high sodium content can elevate fat and calorie levels. Opting for low-sodium broth and minimal added fats offers a lighter version of this versatile sauce. Mushroom gravy is a comforting and flavorful addition that can be adjusted to fit a variety of dietary preferences.
