Tips and Notes
- Day-old or slightly frozen bread works best, as it absorbs the gravy without falling apart.
- Adjust the thickness of the gravy by adding more or less milk. For a thicker consistency, simmer longer or add a small amount of flour or cornstarch.
- This meal is highly versatile; leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently in a skillet or microwave.
- For an authentic nostalgic experience, pair with a cold glass of milk or a warm cup of coffee, just like it was served in large, busy family kitchens.
- Experiment with different seasonings or mix in finely chopped onions for a slightly sweeter, more aromatic gravy.
