If you like chunky gravy, you can enjoy it as is. Another option is to blend the gravy in a food processor until smooth.

As the gravy cools, it will thicken up. You might need to thin it with extra mushroom broth, especially after storing it in the refrigerator. Simply reheat over low heat in a saucepan until warm.
