Re: USCHO Cooks: Are you our Top Chef?
Last night, I made gravy and it was actually good.
This may not seem like an accomplishment, but for me it was. My attempts at gravy usually turn out terrible.
Had bangers and mash for dinner. Thought it would be fun to do a beer braised brat, but didn't have appropriate beer in the fridge. Made up a recipe, used a little bit of Dr. Pepper to braise the sausage in. Really proud of myself for making all these things without a recipe. Told husband afterwards that the only thing I measured was how much flour I put in for the gravy. He's of the opinion that one must follow recipes exactly and measure precisely.
