white gravy
Creamy sausage sauce
White gravy is a thick, creamy sauce made from pan drippings, flour, and milk—a staple of Southern American cooking.
It's the gravy ladled over biscuits, chicken-fried steak, and country-fried chicken.
The name distinguishes it from brown gravies made with darker stocks: biscuits and white gravy, chicken-fried steak smothered in white gravy.
