Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz jarred dried beef sliced into thin strips
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 8 slices sturdy white bread
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter softened

Method
 

  1. Rinse beef under cool water 15 seconds; drain and pat dry to remove surface salt.
  2. Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium. Cook beef 2 minutes until edges slightly curl.
  3. Add flour; stir 1 minute until no dry patches remain.
  4. Gradually whisk in milk; simmer 4 to 6 minutes until gravy coats a spoon. Add pepper and nutmeg.
  5. Butter and toast bread crisp; spoon hot creamed beef over two slices per serving.
