i love gravy

i just invented this vegetarian gravy, or anyway, i made it.

1/2 lb. chantrelle mushrooms
2 tbsp. butter

saute the mushrooms in the butter. dice two of the cooked mushrooms and put them back in the pan with the leftover butter.  (set the rest aside. yum, chantrelles). 

with the heat on medium, add to the pan:

1 oz. bragg's liquid aminos
7 oz. water
1 tbsp. maple syrup
1 tbsp. cider vinegar
1 bay leaf

sprinkle in slowly (mixing vigorously to avoid clumping):

2 tbsp. flour

season with:

dash oregano
dash thyme
dash rosemary

oh man!

i poured it on garlic mashed potatoes served on steamed brussel sprout greens. garnished with arugula flowers.
