Earth Veggie Yeast Gravy

1/2 lb butter
3/4 cup wheat flour
3/4 cup nutritional yeast (better flavor is key here)
1 cup veggie stock
1 cup soy milk (can be left out) or use cow milk
3 cups water 
1 lb mushrooms
carrots, onions, celery for mirepoix 

more oniony variant:

1+ pound onions, chopped or sliced and carmelized
leave out soy milk 

Make mirepoix. Saute and cook mushrooms in butter until well done, remove most of the mushrooms to a sauce pan. Overcook some carrots, onions, and celery until well beyond transparent, deglaze pan with veggie stock or water.

Brown flour in dry pan, add yeast and butter, cook further. Add stock, soy, mirepoix, some water and reduce.

Earth Note: I have often left out the soy milk component. In fact, I can't remember the last time I used that in this recipe. The browner the mirepoix, mushrooms, and onions, the more flavor there is. I have, the last several times, gone a little wild with the onions and ended up with something slightly more like gravy-flavored onion soup slop. Yum.
