🌈 Variations & Pro Hacks

🌱 Gluten-Free? Swap flour for cornstarch or arrowroot (mix 1 tbsp with 2 tbsp cold water, add at end)

🌾 Dairy-Free? Use olive oil + unsweetened almond milk in potatoes; skip butter

🍄 More Veggies? Add peas, carrots, or green beans to the gravy

🧊 Make-Ahead Magic: Keeps 4 days in fridge — flavors deepen overnight

❄️ Freeze It! Freeze before or after adding potatoes — reheat gently on stove

🧠 Why This Works So Well

Flour-thickened gravy = rich, velvety texture without clumps

Worcestershire + soy sauce = deep umami punch (no need for MSG!)

Mushrooms = meaty texture and earthy flavor boost

One-pan method = minimal cleanup, maximum flavor infusion

It’s not magic — it’s home-cooking wisdom. ✨
