Preparation

  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil or vegan butter.
  • Once the oil is hot, whisk in the flour and stir continuously for about 2 minutes until it turns a light golden brown.
  • Gradually pour in the vegetable broth while whisking to avoid lumps.
  • Stir in the soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and season with salt and pepper. Let it simmer for 5-10 minutes until it thickens to your desired consistency.
