Eureka: Kitchen Bouquet!

I'm not talking about flowers. If you remember back in January we made jambalaya and it called for "kitchen bouquet". This ingredient was left out since I had no idea what it was.

Well, in this month's Cook's Illustrated, they cover Kitchen Bouquet in a gravy recipe. Turns out it's a "browning & seasoning sauce", along other grocery store offerings: "Ahhh Bisto", "Rich Brown", and "Gravy Master". According to Cooks Ill., they all taste as bad as they sound. I'm glad I didn't add it to our jambalaya...
