What to know about cream gravy

Cream gravy, the milk-and-flour white gravy poured over biscuits and chicken-fried steak, is a dairy plus gluten trigger rather than an onion one. It is thickened with a wheat-flour roux, so it contains gluten, and it is built on milk, so it is high in lactose and high in dairy protein. That milk base is what makes it high FODMAP here, unlike a meat-and-onion brown gravy where the trouble comes from onion and garlic. If dairy or wheat bother you, a rich cream gravy tends to hit both.

Watch for

  • High in lactose from the milk base, a common cause of bloating, gas and cramping for the lactose intolerant
  • High in dairy protein, so it is a problem if you react to casein or whey
  • Contains gluten from the wheat-flour roux, making it off-limits for celiac disease unless made with a gluten-free thickener
  • High FODMAP mainly because of the lactose, not onion, which sets it apart from brown meat gravy
