Ramp Sausage Gravy Recipes

SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• With your finger, tear small pieces of sausage and add them in a single layer to a large heavy skillet. Brown the sausage over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Sprinkle on half the flour and stir so that the sausage soaks it all up, then add more little by little. Stir it around and cook it for another minute or so, then pour in the milk, stirring constantly.
• Cook the gravy, stirring frequently, until it thickens. (This may take a good 10 to 12 minutes.) Sprinkle in the seasoned salt and pepper and continue cooking until very thick and luscious. If it gets too thick too soon, just splash in another 1/2 cup of milk or more if needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• Spoon the sausage gravy over warm biscuits and serve immediately!

RAMP SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat a large 12-inch cast iron or heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and break up into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Stir in apple and all but 1/4 cup ramps and cook on medium-high heat until the sausage is brown and crumbly, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Turn the heat down to medium, sprinkle the flour evenly on top of the sausage, and stir until fully coated. Cook for 1 more minute.
• Pour in milk and stir well. Continue cooking until the gravy is thickened, but still a bit loose, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with remaining ramps when serving.

SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• In a heavy bottom pot, cook sausage until browned (do not drain fat).
• Sprinkle flour over cooked sausage and stir over medium heat until flour is completely incorporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken stock and stir with a wire whisk to break up any lumps. Add cream and half-and-half. Bring to boil over medium-high heat. Continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add salt and pepper to taste.

SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• Crumble sausage into a large saucepan; cook over medium-low heat. Add onion; cook and stir until transparent. Drain, discarding all but 2 tablespoons of drippings. Stir in flour; cook over medium-low heat about 6 minutes or until mixture bubbles and turns golden. Stir in milk. Add seasonings; cook, stirring, until thickened. To serve, slice biscuits and spoon gravy over halves.

SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• Place sausage in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Remove sausage, drain and set aside.
• Pour off most of the fat from the pan, leaving about 2 to 3 tablespoons. Return pan to medium-low heat and add flour. Using a whisk, stir vigorously until roux forms, scraping bottom of pan. Reduce heat to low and let roux cook at least 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Grandma always "burned" hers a little on purpose.
• Add milk in a stream, whisking the whole time. After adding about 2 1/2 cups, turn heat to medium and continue cooking, stirring constantly. Bring gravy to a boil and cook to desired thickness. Add more milk if a thinner gravy is desired. You may also add some of the cooked and crumbled sausage to the gravy.
