Sauté celery, mushroom or onion, if using.

Cook over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes, whisking constantly.

Notes
For White Gravy, omit vegetables and add salt and black pepper to taste. Fresh ground black pepper is terrific. If it is too thin to suit you, use a little more flour or a little less milk.For SOS, add chopped meat (like this Carl Budding) after sauce thickens. Heat thru. If you haven't heard of SOS, it is a concoction of meat and gravy served over toast referred to as Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast or "Sh*t On the Shingle". I remember my dad making this. Us kids loved it! My children love it! Green beans make a good side dish for this down-home comfort meal.
