Description
A savory, rich gravy made from turkey drippings that perfectly complements your turkey and stuffing.
Ingredients
- Turkey drippings
- All-purpose flour
- Chicken or turkey broth
- Salt
- Pepper
- Optional: herbs (like thyme or rosemary)
Instructions
- After roasting the turkey, pour the drippings into a measuring cup and let them sit until the fat rises to the top.
- Skim off the fat, leaving about 2-4 tablespoons in the pan for flavor.
- Place the pan over medium heat and whisk in the flour, cooking for about a minute until it’s lightly golden.
- Gradually add the broth while continuing to whisk until the mixture is smooth.
- Cook until the gravy thickens, about 5-10 minutes while stirring occasionally.
- Season with salt, pepper, and any optional herbs to taste.
Notes
For a darker gravy, allow the flour to cook longer before adding the broth. Use a whisk for smooth gravy; it helps to eliminate lumps.
