am i ,remove the meat and veg and drink what's left that's what the taste is overall ,you can make the same taste by not putting the meat or veg in at all ,its all a ploy to disguise the fact a "cook" needs to cover up the fact he cannot cook at all

if you want to taste beef just cook beef its obvious

 

the best beef i know of is salt beef its not cooked at all! as soon as you start adding ingredients with flavour you taste them not the beef

am i a philistine or is it your palette is so jaded you need a pile of spice in everything to taste what you call food?

That's not gravy, that's a sauce. Proper gravy is made by deglazing the bottom of the roasting pan.

roux, gravy, sauce to me are like the same but thank you for the correction and it would be good thing to glaze your roasting tin and get all those juices and its a good to saute your onions in it

 

not wanting to cause trouble would you be describing the instant gravy grannels just mixed with boiling water as gravy or is that called something else?

[corydoras]

I'll take your word for that
