Bill, I am a good gravy maker, but am not sure I can tell you how. So I will try. For milk gravy you need drippings from like a fried chicken. You need a good layer in the bottom of your skillet. Start heating it and slowly add flour and use a Wisk to stir it. What you want is for the flour to be totally mixed with the oil the oil should be absorbed by the flour. . It will feel sort of lumpy at first. I will lightly touch an area to see if the flour and oil are mixed. You Don't want it to feel greasy. Then slowly start adding milk and wisking continuely. When I say slowly I mean slowly, you can always add more, but can't take it out. As it heats it will start thickening. Keep stirring and adding milk till it is the thickness you want the gravy. At this time I will start adding the seasonings I like, pepper, salt, I like a little garlic salt. As with the milk, start small and taste as you go. It isn't hard, but takes time to get what you like. Don't give up at the first try, it gets easier. I am totally blind and have no trouble making good gravy. Hope this helps. Vicki jack

I know my mother and my dad both could make it but I never could. I was wondering if anyone has any simple recipes on how to do it?
