In a large sauté pan, heat up two tablespoons of olive oil. Add the chopped shiitake mushrooms and sauté for 3-4 minutes.
Add the dried thyme, Bragg's and tomato paste, stir and cook for one minute longer.
Next, add the vegetable broth, stir and bring to a gentle boil.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and almond milk until combined. Slowly add this mixture to the gravy whisking continuously until the gravy is thick, glossy and smooth.
Finish the gravy with black pepper, taste and add additional salt if needed, remove the gravy from the heat and enjoy!
This gravy is wonderful spooned over potatoes, noodles or biscuits and will easily serve 4.
