submitted by:

Jenny Lewis (Rilo Kiley)

Jenny says that her producer, Mike Mogis, taught her a lot about vegan cooking. Smother this gravy on brown rice, vegetables, “tastes like chicken!” tofu, or mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup nutritional yeast flakes
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 3/4 cup hot water
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup vegan margarine (2 sticks)
  • 2 tablespoons vegan worcestershire sauce (see recipe)
  • 2 cups soy milk

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt margarine. Stir in flour and yeast until blended….whisk constantly for four minutes. Whisking is important to avoid burning. Add soy milk gradually.
  2. Combine soy sauce, water, and vegan worcestershire add to gravy gradually. Blend well. If too thin, continue cooking to thicken.
