Well you're not using "meat", you're extracting the bone marrow to flavour the stock. I forgot to mention that you'd want to roast the bones for about 25-30 minutes at 350 before the boil.
For a veggie gravy, my instinct would be to use mushrooms using the same method. I haven't actually made a gravy out of it, but I've made mushroom stock to flavour bok choy, and I've had mushroom gravy on poutine one week when my high school had a vegetarian week. I imagine you could use the same basic method as the animal stocks. I don't think you'd need the carrots or celery, but using roasted onions could work. The idea is you're extracting the flavour into the water, then reducing the liquid to enhance the flavour you've extracted. Use flour or cornstarch to thicken the sauce once you've got the desired flavour.
You could use a mixture of ake (a nice sharp mushroom flavour), Cremini and Oyster mushrooms (to mellow out the ake). I'd start with an even split of each type, then modify the recipe going forward based on the results. |

I just loved Jays gourmet description of the gravy should be. It's in french fries with cheese and gravy ffs, lol. |
If what I described sounded gourmet to you, you probably eat roadkill like a hillbilly. Yes, poutine is fries, curds, and sauce. Yes, it sounds simple. When it is done right, it is a great comfort food. When it is half assed, it is just a pile a that will come out the next day like a whole brick of black tar heroin.
A steak is just a piece of meat on a grill. Are they all good? Is seasoning it and basting it gourmet?
I mean a catheter is just something you jab into a pee hole, but I'm sure that the medical books describe it in a more gourmet fashion. |

| And whatever you do Lira, strain the sauce at the end. Lumpy sauce is worse than titties that flop around like helicopter blades and applaud when you hit it from the back. |

Round out means make bigger, better or more complete.
In this sense it would mean he adds another dimension to the gravy, ie tanginess.
All pro chefs use vinegars. In everything. EVERYTHING!! |

| Jesus ing christ I know what it means. The point is he sounds like a fag. It's street food!! :stongue: |

Considering that street food is illegal in Quebec and doesn't exist, you probably should go sit at the back of the bus with Kunte Kinte.
We can't be all from butt nowhere Ontario Jpie. The food in Quebec sucks. I can't wait to try your goulash. |

Yeah yeah.
Anyway, yesterday, because of this thread, I had a poutine for breakfast. Yes, at a diner. :o |
