Servings

Makes about 2½ cups

Ingredients

8 gingersnap cookies
2 tablespoons pork lard, chicken fat, or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup finely diced onions
½ cup finely diced celery
½ teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon Chef Paul Prudhomme's Meat Magic®
7 cups pork or chicken stock
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground ginger

How To Prepare

Crush the cookies with a rolling pin on a hard surface to make fine crumbs and set aside.

Melt the lard (or fat or oil) and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When almost melted, add the onions, celery and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Stir in the Meat Magic®and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes more. Add the stock and bring to a boil over high heat, and boil rapidly until the liquid is reduced to about 1 quart, about 25 minutes. Stir in the cookie crumbs and cook, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes. Taste the gravy; if the ginger flavor is not pronounced enough, add the brown sugar and ground ginger and stir to combine. Strain the gravy before serving.
