A special sauce should have a fairly thick consistency, so experienced housewives choose one of the possible methods for adding thickness to the gravy.
As it turns out, there are quite a few such methods.
Some people choose the classic version with flour, but there are also more unusual methods.
What methods can you pay attention to?
Starch
This product works very well with sauces and gravy. Many people find it the simplest. One spoon of the product is dissolved in 200 ml of water.
Afterwards, you need to actively beat the substance.
Add starch gradually.
Mustard
This option is perfect for those who like a light piquancy in their dishes. You will need to add 1-2 spoons of mustard powder while working with the sauce.
Try to mix the dry component thoroughly so that there are no lumps. A nice bonus of this method is that the sauce turns out to be a very beautiful color.
Butter or sour cream
Both components can make the gravy thick, but the method of adding it is different. Sour cream is added in small quantities when the sauce is ready and has even cooled down a bit.
Butter is added during the cooking process.
