For a richer, more intense mushroom flavor, consider using a blend of different mushroom varieties, such as cremini, shiitake, or oyster mushrooms. If you prefer a thicker gravy, you can whisk in a slurry of 1 teaspoon of cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon of cold water during the last minute of cooking. To make this gravy vegan, substitute the butter with olive oil or vegan butter, and use a plant-based cream alternative such as oat cream or cashew cream. Omit the Parmesan cheese or use a vegan Parmesan substitute. This gravy can be made ahead of time and reheated gently over low heat. Add a splash of milk or cream if it becomes too thick.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
4 mins
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam, approximately 3-4 minutes. This gentle heat coaxes out the butter's nutty aroma, forming the base of our flavorful gravy.
02
Step
3 mins
Add the minced shallots and garlic to the melted butter. Sauté, stirring frequently, until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Avoid browning, as we want to retain their delicate sweetness.
03
Step
1 mins
Introduce the sliced mushrooms and minced rosemary to the pan. Stir to coat them evenly with the buttery shallot mixture. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 1 minute, allowing the mushrooms to begin releasing their earthy essence.
04
Step
5 mins
Pour 4 tablespoons of white wine into the mushroom mixture, deglazing the pan and lifting any flavorful bits from the bottom. Cook and stir until the mushrooms are a rich golden brown and the wine has nearly evaporated, approximately 3-5 minutes. The alcohol will cook off, leaving behind a concentrated burst of flavor.
05
Step
5 mins
Increase the heat to medium-high. Gently pour in the heavy cream and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of white wine. Cook, stirring constantly, until the gravy thickens to a creamy, luxurious consistency, about 5 minutes. Be patient, as this step is crucial for achieving the perfect texture.
06
StepSeason the gravy generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. A pinch of salt enhances the other flavors, while the pepper adds a subtle warmth and complexity.
07
StepIf desired, sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese for an extra layer of savory richness. Serve immediately and savor the exquisite flavors.
