FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I prepare the gravy? Whisk the dry mix into cold water first to prevent lumps, then bring the mixture to a boil while stirring constantly. Simmer for one minute until thickened and glossy.
What is the mixing ratio? For a standard thickness, use approximately 100g to 125g of powder per 1 liter of water. You can adjust the amount of powder to achieve your preferred "diner-style" or "gourmet" consistency.
Can I use this gravy for other meats? Absolutely. While flavored for chicken, its savory profile works exceptionally well with turkey, roasted pork, and even as a lighter alternative for meatloaf.
Does it hold up in a steam table? Yes. McLean Chicken Gravy is designed for food service and maintains its smooth consistency and flavor even when held at serving temperatures for extended periods.
Can I add my own seasonings? While fully seasoned, many chefs add a pinch of fresh thyme, cracked black pepper, or a splash of white wine to create a "signature" house gravy.
How should I store the dry mix? Keep the lid tightly sealed and store the tub in a cool, dry pantry. In Calgary’s dry climate, the powder remains free-flowing as long as it is kept away from direct steam.
Is this the same brand used in professional kitchens? Yes, McLean is a staple in the Canadian hospitality industry, trusted for providing consistent results that customers expect in professional establishments.
