COUNTRY MILK GRAVY

Steps:

• In med sauce pan heat milk, salt and pepper to a low boil on med to med high heat. (you need to stir frequently so milk does not scorch.).
• Whisk 1/2 cup flour and the 1/2 cup milk to a slurry and slowly stir into hot milk. (at this point you will want to stir constantly as the flour will have a tendency to collect on the bottom of the pan and burn.).
• Reduce to simmer stirring constantly for 10 minutes or so until gravy reaches desired thickness. (Simmering will cook the flour and remove the pasty flavor. Gravy will thicken a little more as it cools.).
