Question:
Can you please solve a
dispute. When you make Sunday dinner and use tomatoes and meat - is that
called Gravy? Anything without meat is considered sauce. If I am
misguided, please let me know.
Gravy is a sauce made
from meat juices, usually combined with a liquid such as
chicken or beef broth, wine or milk and thickened with
flour, cornstarch, or some other thickening agent. A gravy
may also be the simple juices left in the pan after the
meat, poultry, or fish has been cooked.
