4 servings
- 1 tbsp ham drippings butter or unsalted butter
Chef's tipUse a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one. - ¾ cup strong brewed black coffee
- ¼ cup water
- 1 tsp cornstarch
Ingredient noteCornstarch is a refined starch that anti-inflammatory diets limit as a refined carbohydrate, but the small amount (~1/4 tsp per serving) used to thicken this recipe is likely fine. If you prefer to always avoid corn starch, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tbsp cold water
- ¼ tsp salt, or to taste
- ⅛ tsp black pepper
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
- 1

Pour in the coffee and water, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a whisk until the fond is fully dissolved, about 1 minute.
