A comforting and hearty breakfast dish featuring flaky biscuits topped with a rich and creamy sausage gravy.
Cook the ground sausage in a saucepan over medium heat until browned, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks.
Ensure the sausage is fully cooked and browned for maximum flavor.
Remove the cooked sausage from the pan and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.
Retaining the drippings adds depth to the gravy's flavor.
Melt the butter in the same pan over medium heat, then stir in the flour and whisk until smooth.
Whisk continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
Add the dry mustard, salt, and black pepper to the roux, stirring to combine.
Adjust the seasoning to taste for a personalized flavor.
Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring a smooth mixture, and cook until the gravy thickens.
Keep stirring to achieve a creamy consistency.
Return the cooked sausage to the gravy, stirring to combine evenly.
Ensure the sausage is evenly distributed throughout the gravy.
Serve the sausage gravy over warm, flaky biscuits.
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a touch of color and freshness.
