Recently you commented on the Europeans considering gravy to include 
just the drippings and not necessarily creating a roux, where the 
Americans consider a rouz necessary to call it a gravy.
I missed this the first time around.... the first exception I can think of to 
test this rule is "Redeye Gravy", made with ham drippings, butter and black 
coffee. Not period, decidely American though, and in most examples I've seen, 
clear, or clearish.... Any other regonal examples?
