    What language is this?

    Note to original poster: Punctuation is your friend. Oh, and it's not
    optional if you want to be understood.

    Making your own pan gravies and quick sauces is a great way to enhance
    your cooking skills. It turns out to be fast and easy, and very
    rewarding. You're off to a good start already by recognizing that
    those powdered concoctions are rubbish. For example, suppose you've
    cooked ground beef patties in a cast iron skillet and just removed
    them:

    add a knob of butter to the skillet along with some chopped onions
    (or better, shallots), cook for a minute or two on medium high heat;
    stir in a bit of flour -- about the same amount as, or a little
    less than, the butter;
    while watching that cook for another minute, sip from your glass
    of red wine, then pour a few tablespoonsful of wine into the skillet,
    stir well, being sure to scrape up the flavorful bits from the bottom
    of the skillet;
    now pour in some canned (tinned) beef consommé or beef stock,
    boil it until the sauce reaches the consistency you like;
    serve over your beef patties.

    There are hundreds of variations, but I hope this demonstrates how easy
    this is.

    Based on what 'Rusty' posted, it's instant gravy mix in the UK.

    I believe the original poster (I missed that post) is looking for powdered
    gravy mix. Colin, where do you live? That way, you won't be getting
    advice from people in another country.

    I don't know much about it, either. But google is my friend. ;-)

    I would just make homemade gravy (or instant in a pinch).

    Looks like a browning agent, some sort of caramelized stuff (sugar, I
    guess) and salt.

  12. Sorry for punctuation mistakes, i live in uk and have always prefered
    comptons to bisto etc which comes in powder form thank you for all the
    relies and advice much appreciated ,Colin
