      Title: Fat-Free Gravy
 Categories: Sauces, Diabetic, Low-fat/cal
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
      1 c  Broth & defatted drippings
      2 ts All purpose flour
      1 ts Corn starch
      1 ts Ketchup
      1 pn Salt
      1 pn Freshly ground pepper
      1 pn Basil; for beef -OR-
      1 pn Sage; for chicken
 
  A waist-watcher gravy--quite thin. Serve over meat or potatoes.
  
  Cook up bones as for soup, strain liquid. Refrigerate overnight or
  until white fat on top can be removed with a spoon. Refrigerate
  meat drippings from the pan and skim off the fat.
  
  Combine broth, flour, and corn starch in a screw-top jar, cover and
  shake until well combined or use a blender for a larger batch. Pour
  into saucepan, stir in ketchup, salt, pepper, and basil for beef
  (or sage for turkey, or other herb of your choice). Stir-cook over
  medium heat until gravy thickens. Mine didn't thicken but I had
  some lumps of flour or corn starch.
