Vegan Gravy

Cultural Context

Vegan gravy has become a staple in plant-based cooking, particularly in the United States, where traditional gravies often rely on meat drippings. This savory sauce is perfect for enhancing dishes like mashed potatoes or vegetable roasts, offering a rich flavor without animal products. Its popularity has surged with the rise of veganism, making it a common feature at holiday meals and gatherings.
