Shinmai Shimai no Futari Gohan - Vol. 3 Ch. 16 - Roast Chicken

@Purplelibraryguy:

Well, gravy is really whatever sauce you make with the drippings, so it checks out on a technical level? I think it does look maybe a bit on the sweet-and-sour side for my personal tastes, but it's really hard to tell without measurements for everything...

(While they make fine enough reading material, I would go mad trying to follow these recipes, with all the details missing from them.)
 
@Pokari Yeah, I guess it'd be OK if the balsamic and whatnot didn't overwhelm it. I've just been brought up in a tradition where the meat speaks for itself--in my family gravy is supposed to taste like the drippings (which in turn will taste a bit of whatever you were doing the turkey in--pepper, garlic, herbes de Provence or whatever). Drippings, fat, flour, maybe a bit of salt, done. So my sheltered British-descended sensibilities got a shock. :)
 
Awww

As always the author includes little glances and unexplained looks from the side characters, and so I'm wondering if any of that will come up again in the future...
 
the only thing i could think of during this chapter was the turkey scene from scary movie 2...
