MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Dave's White Gravy Categories: Five, Sauces, Dairy Yield: 5 Servings 1/2 c Suet or lard 3/4 c A-P flour 1 ts Salt 1 tb (minimum)coarse black pepper 4 c Half & half or 18% fat cream Render suet (if using) or melt lard in a large skillet over medium heat; whisk in the flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Cook and stir over medium heat until browned (about 10 minutes, the mixture MUST be browned!). You're making a roux here. That's a fancy term for "fried flour". Gradually whisk in half & half or cream; cook/whisk until smooth and thickened (no lumps must remain). If the gravy becomes too thick add in a litle more liquid and whisk until smooth and heated.
