Pork gravy is a rich and savory sauce traditionally made by combining the drippings from cooked pork, flour, and liquid such as broth or milk. Often seasoned with salt, pepper, and herbs like thyme or rosemary, it boasts a hearty flavor that complements a variety of dishes. Rooted in comfort food cuisine, pork gravy is commonly associated with American, British, and European home cooking. While it provides a satisfying source of umami, pork gravy can be high in sodium and fat, depending on preparation methods. Using leaner pork cuts and substituting butter or cream with lighter alternatives can improve its nutritional profile. It's a versatile topping for dishes like mashed potatoes, vegetables, or biscuits, offering both flavorful indulgence and nostalgic appeal. Moderation is key to enjoying this staple as part of a balanced diet.
