What can you do if your gravy is too salty?

[Edit]

Answer

If your gravy is too salty, peel a potato, cut into slices or chunks and add to gravy. The raw potato will soak up much of the salt. Leave potato slices in for 5 - 10 minutes, then taste. Once you remove the potatoes then taste again and you may have to add a little more water because potatoes can make the gravy thicker. If you are boiling vegetables such as carrots, peas, etc., use a little of the vegetable water (it has flavor.) Believe it or not, when your gravy doesn't quite have that kick, use a teaspoon or two of ketchup!
