Serve this wonderful Sou...Southern Sausage Gravy <br /><br />Serve this wonderful Southern-style gravy over hot split and buttered buttermilk biscuits. Biscuits with gravy make a great breakfast with fresh or spiced fruit, or serve along with a complete breakfast. The recipe below makes enough for two large portions… you’ll probably want to double it to make plenty – because everyone will want seconds!! <br />Ingredients:<br />• 8 ounces breakfast sausage <br />• 2 tablespoons shortening or lard <br />• 3 tablespoons flour <br />• 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups milk <br />• salt and pepper, to taste <br />• dash cayenne pepper, optional<br />Preparation:<br />Cook sausage in a medium skillet over medium-low heat, stirring and breaking up with a spatula. With a slotted spoon, removed the browned crumbled sausage to a paper towel-lined plate. Add 2 tablespoons shortening, vegetable oil, or lard to the drippings in the skillet. Add flour, stirring until blended and bubbling. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups milk; continue stirring and cooking until thickened and bubbly. Add the crumbled sausage. If too thick, add a little more milk. Taste and add salt and pepper. Stir in a dash of cayenne pepper, if desired. <br />Serve over hot split and buttered biscuits. Serve sliced tomatoes or fresh fruit with these, or serve as part of a bigger breakfast.Scott Hargrovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09566363211395652740noreply@blogger.com
