¡¡Delicioso!! I used only 1/3 cup of vegetable oil and it turned out fantastic. I also didn't have sage so I used thyme instead. (I was in a hurry). Great Recipe!

Yummy, very oniony, not as close to "normal" gravy as I expected, but it was still nice. My guests really enjoyed it - much more than I did. I will continue searching for a better veg gravy.

What can I say except,"YUCK"!! Maybe I just didn't prepare it right. I cut down on the oil as suggested, and had to add more broth. What I came out with was a disaster. I looked like chuncky peanut butter and tasted awful.Plus the consistency was never quite right. I'm glad so many people enjoyed this recipe. Maybe I can try it again and hope to come out with a better result, as I am really desperate for a good vegan gravy.

I loved this gravy. It's one of the few things I've missed since becoming a vegetarian. I too had the issue with it becoming very thick but I just added some water and it seemed to turn out fine. My only issue with this recipe is what seems to me to be an ungodly amount of vegetable oil. I might try cutting that back next time to see what happens. Such a great recipe!

this was a hit at our tofurkey thanksgiving, and with a couple changes will be a yearly staple. first, definitely lose the salt, it is by far salty enough from the soy sauce. second, saute some chopped mushrooms with the onion, and you've got a gravy to die for!

This is my favourite vegan gravy recipe, hands-down. The only note I'll make is the same others have made -- you must double the amount of stock listed! Oh, and the quality of your stock makes a big difference -- homemade stock and tetra packs of stock really do make a better gravy than bouillon cubes. The recipe makes a fair amount once you double the stock, but the gravy disappears all too fast.

This recipe was a huge hit at the holiday dinner potluck I brought it to! Vegan, vegetarian, and meat-eaters alike were looking for things to dip into it and pour it onto by the end just to scoop more of it up. I added mushrooms (which I food processed), Italian herbs instead of sage, and Bragg's liquid aminos, a delicious healthy alternative to soy sauce, and no yeast. It was wonderful. I've promised my partner to make it again for our holiday dinner.

Tastes AMAZING!! Took it into my office with biscuits and it was gone! So good. I made it without only about a tablespoon of olive oil instead of the veggie oil and it was still delicious! Highly recommend!

Good recipe, but not for me, I am a carnivore and I made it for my wife and her family who are vegetarians. I thought it was pretty good at first, aside from it being too thick, I forgot to reduce the oil and flour which I too would suggest. But the next day my brother-in-law decided that a can of Cream of Mushroom soup was a better choice and after trying that as well I would have to agree, that is great for me though! Next time its CofM soup for the Vegsters and I'll be making some real gravy for myself.

This recipe rocks!! The meat-eaters loved it too. I only used half the amount of vegetable oil and added butter instead so the oil wouldn't separate. I omitted the yeast and it worked out great. I also used slightly more soy sauce than called for and nearly doubled the amount of broth because the gravy was way too thick. This was incredible and I will totally use this recipe again.

It turned out okay.... the non-vegetarians didn't even know it was veggie friendly! A little too thick for my liking though... I'll tweak it next time but do plan to make it again!

I made this over the weekend testing it for Thanksgiving. My 19 year old son recently went vegetarian but still wanted gravy for Thanksgiving,this was wonderful! My husband came in from yard work and wanted to know what I was cooking, then he couldn't get enough of it! Thanks for the great addition to our Thanksgiving menu.

Delicious! We have a meat eater, two vegetarians and a vegan in our household and everyone liked this gravy.I didn't add any salt and doubled amount of broth. I used the gravy for my vegan salisbury steak recipe I found on line Here's the link. It is super good. Just a note, I increased the amount of onion and garlic powder and just fried the patties in an oiled pan until it was browned. Then topped with the yummy gravy. http://www.veganmeat.com/rec/steak.html

This is THE BEST veggie gravy recipe in the entire universe. My partner and I have been looking for a good vegetarian gravy recipe for a long time now, as most of them seem to be kinda difficult or have mushrooms, etc., in them (which he hates) but we both love this one sooooo much. It's good on absolutely anything and everything. And it's simple and quick to make. LOVE it!
