Back on subject............Im a lover of traditional gravy. As mentioned previously a dash of vinegar is a chef's secrete as is dash of coco powder. Sounds weird but gives it shine and body.

 

Anyone like Chinese style gravy? I love it and if you find a good chin ease restaurant that does nice chinese style gravy go and try it.

 

Here's a recipe:

 

BASIC CHINESE GRAVY

1 c. chicken bouillon

1 tsp. sugar

2 tbsp. soy sauce

1/4 tsp. monosodium glutamate

1 tbsp. cornstarch

2 tbsp. cold water

1 tsp. sesame oil

1/2 tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. pepper

Pour bouillon in a small saucepan and heat to boiling. Add sugar, soy sauce and MSG. Blend cornstarch and water; stir the mixture into bouillon and cook, stirring constantly until thickened. Add the remaining ingredients and stir well. Makes about 1 cup.

 

 

No.

He's right - Chips, cheese and gravy was invented in the Isle of Man

 

But that's not poutine and poutine was around before the manx decided to stick cheese on chips and gravy.

So whats poutine then? Wikipedia has it as "french fries, topped with brown gravy and curd cheese". Poutine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

It also has poutine as being invented anywhere from the late 50's to mid 60's. Do you know for a fact that they weren't eating it on the Isle of Man back then too? I can't say for sure, and I'm from there!

You can't say for sure but were the one trying to say for sure in the first place. Hmmm.
