Dazzle your Thanksgiving guests with turkey gravy alongside your golden turkey and mashed potatoes!  

Ingredients: 

• 2 1/2 cups of turkey pan drippings or stock 

• 1/4 cup of unsalted butter 

• 1/4 cup of flour

Recipe: 

• Strain turkey pan drippings. 

• Then melt butter in a small pot on the stove.

• Next, add flour to make a roux. Cook the roux for about a minute or two, until it starts to smell like browned butter.

• Then slowly pour in your turkey drippings. If you don’t have enough, you can use chicken stock. 

A few notes to remember: 

•  Keep in mind that thick gravy can be fixed and thinned out, but it’s harder to thicken a watery gravy, so if you add more liquid after the flour do it slowly! 

• The gravy will thicken a bit after it rests for a few minutes. 

• As long as your turkey is seasoned well you shouldn’t have to add seasoning to your gravy, but taste just to check! 

 

I hope you have a blessed Thanksgiving!
