The useful answer

Poutine Gravy and the low FODMAP diet

Poutine gravy combines broth, fat, thickeners, and spices to create a rich sauce for fries and cheese. The primary digestive risk comes from wheat flour or onion powder used extensively as thickeners and flavor boosters. Commercial preparations frequently add hydrolyzed yeast, malt extract, or hidden garlic derivatives. These concentrated additions quickly elevate fructan levels and trigger bloating even in small servings. Careful label verification ensures you select a formulation aligned with your dietary management plan.

Preparation & context

What can change the result?

Prepare gravy by whisking rice flour or cornstarch into low-FODMAP beef stock for a smooth and gut-friendly consistency. Sauté beef drippings with a splash of certified gluten-free tamari to deepen flavor without relying on wheat-based roux. Always keep the mixture moving over medium heat to prevent lumping and achieve a glossy, pourable texture.
