I adapted this recipe from THE JOY OF COOKING and have been making it for more years than I care to remember. It's fast and easy.... fast and easy enough to be able to make a 2nd batch in the middle of dinner b/c folks scarfed up the first batch! NOTE: I'm not sure how 1-2 TEAspoons of Worcestershire got changed to 1-2 TABLEspoons.... which is way too much! I've changed the recipe back to 1-2 TEAspoons of Worcestershire. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine |
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can campbells condensed beef broth (flavor of your choice, i usually use beef) or 1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed chicken broth (flavor of your choice, i usually use beef) or 1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed vegetable broth, undiluted (flavor of your choice, i usually use beef) |
1 -2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce, to taste |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (do not use garlic salt... results will be too salty) |
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper (to taste) |
Directions:
1. Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat.
2. Whisk in flour til well blended.
3. Slowly add broth, whisking continually.
4. Add Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and pepper.
5. Cook over medicum heat til thickened, stirring from time to time.
6. Keep an eye on the saucepan, the thickening process goes quickly.
