About the Recipe

Shiitake or Chestnut Vegan Mushroom Gravy will have you and your guests licking their plates! A wonderful and savory addition to add to your culinary repertoire.

Benefits of Chestnut Mushrooms

An interesting fact; Chestnut mushrooms are a super dense source of vitamins and minerals, and possess a higher density of B3, B5, and B2 vitamins than garden vegetables. Along with their earthy and nutty flavor, they are surprisingly packed with stuff that’s good for you too!

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil or vegan butter
  • 1 (16 ounce) package sliced mushrooms (Shiitake or Chestnut)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
  • 1 quart (4 cups) mushroom or vegetable broth
  • mineral salt & fresh ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, or to taste (optional)

Directions

  • Heat oil over medium heat, add mushrooms and season with a pinch of salt.
  • Simmer mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until liquid is almost evaporated, about 15 minutes.
  • Add flour, continue cooking and stirring for about 3 – 5 minutes, at least until the flour has been absorbed and not white anymore.
  • Add 1 cup of broth, stirring/whisking briskly until incorporated and liquid has thickened, there should be no flour lumps, about 5 minutes.
  • Slowly pour in the remaining broth and mix thoroughly. Season with black pepper and thyme.
  • Simmer at a gentle boil over medium-low until thickened, about 20 minutes, stirring often. Gravy will thicken upon standing.
  • Taste for flavor, adding more salt and pepper as needed.
