I was trying to throw together some quick items to have something for dinner later. Some penne was left, some rotini was left, had some hot sausage I meant to use for a pizza the other day, but the spouse didn’t want sausage that day, whatever, make a quick dish.
Cook the bottom of the box penne and rotini, throw the sausage in a pan, season/brown in, throw it into the pot of drained pasta.
Take the sausage juice/fat and add flour to it to start a roux. Everything seems good, poor in the last of the milk… wait, was that thick. Crap it smells off, check the jug, best by January 7th. Son of a b, can’t get that sausage fat back to start over, and the milk is gone. Looking for liquids because I don’t have any broth or such in the pantry. Ugh
The “organic” milk is always ultra pasteurized, so it lasts a lot longer. Sorry about your gravy :(
It’s alright, now it’ll just be a strange sauce. Ended up finding 1/3 jar of Alfredo, so I did a roux with flour/butter and then added the only other liquid I could find, white grape juice and seasoned it. Added the extra Alfredo so it would be more “normal” but overall it’s actually not nearly as bad as I thought it would be haha
Grape juice Alfredo. You’re either mad, a genius, or both.
Yeah I saw it and said, well I’d put wine in a sauce, how much different could it be
