The best way is to never get lumps in your gravy in the first place. You do that by holding out the liquid/juices, warming the flour and oil together in a pan until the flour is totally liquefied and bubbling in the oil, and THEN adding the juices. This method will cut down dramatically, if not entirely eliminate, all lumps. If you do get lumps, run your lumpy gravy through a fine strainer, collecting the lumps together. Then, dip into the gravy, and keep pouring it through the strainer, at the same time crushing the lumps with a spoon. Do that a couple of times and all the lumps will be dissolved into the gravy. Only the toughest parts of the lumps will remain in the strainer.

Why you need to stir the gravy with small fire?
If the mixture of flour and water/broth is cooked to quickly, or with a high heat, the mixture will result in "paste" or "lumps". The lumps are flour "balls" that have not absorbed any water to cook properly. If your gravy becomes paste, then you need a little more water for your mixture. Gravy needs to be cooked at a low/mid heat to ensure a good evenly cooked mixture. After the flour and water have started cooking, let the mixture continue to proceed to a light boil. When the gravy is boiling, continue to stir for 3 minutes. This will help ensure the flour is absorbed and this will also help the taste. If gravy is not cooked to a boil, then there is a chance your gravy could taste like flour. I hope this helps for all your gravy needs.. Enjoy!! TX T... where it is all about meat, taters n gravy!!
