2. Dissolve Gingersnaps: Gently stir the mixture until the gingersnaps have completely dissolved, infusing the liquid with their unique flavor.

3. Add Vinegar and Wieners: Once the gingersnaps are dissolved, add the white distilled vinegar and sliced all-beef wieners to the skillet, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

4. Heat and Thicken: Place the skillet over medium-low heat, allowing the mixture to heat until it almost boils and begins to thicken. If using a chicken fryer, cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens, approximately 10 minutes. Then, reduce the heat to a simmer and continue cooking for an additional 10-15 minutes.

5. Serve: Once the gravy has reached your desired consistency and the wieners are heated through, serve the Sour Wiener Gravy over hot-cooked mashed potatoes, allowing the flavors to meld together in a delightful combination of textures and tastes.

Additional Notes:

• Gingersnap Selection: Ensure to use store-bought gingersnap cookies from recommended brands such as Rippin Good, Stauffer’s, or Lil’ Dutch Maid. Avoid using homemade cookies as they may alter the flavor and consistency of the gravy.
• Customization: Feel free to adjust the seasoning according to your preferences, adding more salt, pepper, or vinegar to suit your taste.
• Storage: Any leftover Sour Wiener Gravy can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Simply reheat on the stove or in the microwave before serving.
