What can replace flour in sauces and gravy: not all housewives know

It is known that flour is used to prepare various gravies and sauces.

But not everyone is in a hurry to use this particular component, notes chef Yulia Arkhipova, an expert in culinary issues at the online publication BelNovosti.

Breading

As it turns out, breadcrumbs can make the sauce texture perfect in a matter of minutes: no need to waste time cooking the gravy. The secret is simple: they simply do a great job of absorbing liquid.

Any other flour

The mechanism of action of the products will be approximately the same.
