Description

This turkey gravy is incredibly flavorful. It’s the best I have ever tried! I must have refilled my plate with mashed potatoes three times just to have more of this gravy.

Ingredients

  • 3 Tablespoons Fat Drippings From Roasted Turkey
  • 3 Tablespoons Flour
  • 2 cups Turkey Drippings, Skimmed Of Fat (add Water Or Broth If You Don't Have Enough)
  • ¼ cups Milk
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste

Preparation

1. Once your Thanksgiving turkey has been transferred from the roasting pan and is resting, make your turkey gravy. Strain all drippings from the turkey pan through a fine mesh sieve into a large measuring cup. Discard anything you catch in the sieve. Let drippings in the measuring cup rest for a minute. The fat will float to the top and broth will sink to the bottom.
2. Skim off the listed amount of fat and transfer it into a medium-sized saucepan (skim off and discard the excess fat left in the measuring cup, making sure to keep the broth underneath). Set saucepan over medium heat. Once oil is starting to sizzle, whisk in the flour and stir until well combined. Continue whisking until mixture is starting to turn a light golden brown.
3. Gradually pour the skimmed turkey drippings/broth into your saucepan, whisking constantly. You should have about 2 cups of drippings left in the measuring cup after fat is removed. Add more water or broth if needed to make 2 cups (I had to add ⅓ cup water). Bring to a light boil, whisking constantly.
4. Add the milk for a creamier gravy and continue to simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste if needed (mine was plenty flavorful without it). Remove from heat, cover with lid and keep warm until ready to serve, then transfer gravy to a gravy boat. It will thicken slightly as it cools. Pour over sliced turkey and mashed potatoes. It’s truly wonderful.
