It will look like their isn't enough juice, but, there is.Put the ham on a large platter and cover it with aluminum foil while you make the gravy.In a skillet, pour the ham juices and add the butter.Once the butter is melted, add 1/4 cup of the flour and whisk to combine. I used 1/4 cup flour pus 2 tablespoons.Continue adding flour, whisking constantly, until a smooth paste is achieved. Cook the roux over a medium heat until you get a nice deep golden color, about 3 minutes.Add the milk, whisking the whole time to prevent lumps forming. Cook until thick and season, to taste.Serve over mashed potatoes. 2 Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Huh....I've never even considered making gravy from ham drippings. And now that I think about it, I have no idea why. Will try this next time we do a ham. It has to be good. Quote Link to comment
