Hamburger Gravy
 
1 lb. hamburger
1 tsp. Worcestershire
3 cups milk, plus 2 tablespoons, divided
demiglace or bouillon
salt and pepper to taste
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
hot sauce (optional)
 
Brown the hamburger in a skillet.  Drain off any excess fat.  Add
Worcestershire, 3 cups of milk, and 3 teaspoons of the demiglace.
Bring mixture to a boil.  Taste and add more milk or demiglace as
needed.  Add salt and/or pepper and hot sauce* to taste.  When the
gravy tastes right, make a slurry of cornstarch and milk (the amount
of cornstarch depends on how much thickening the gravy needs.  1
tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons milk is a good place to
start) and add to the gravy, stirring vigorously to combine.  Bring
mixture to a boil and stir continuously as the gravy thickens.
Serve hot over biscuits.
