Gravy
During this time of year I make gravy on a weekly basis. When the cold, damp weather sets in, rich, warm, gravy makes for a delicious comfort food smothered over roasted chicken or turkey.

i have a quick question, if you can't find kudzu at the store, could you use arrowroot instead?
thank you for this site, i recently became gluten intolerant and it has not been easy for me, but thanks to you this new eating path has been made so much easier!
thank you and happy holidays!

You are welcome and I'm glad you found us over here!
I often use kudzu and arrowroot interchangeably in recipes and have not found it to be a problem.
