Elegant Homemade Gravy

Elegant Homemade Gravy

Ingredients:

  • Drippings from roasted turkey
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups chicken or turkey broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional)
  • Fresh herbs (such as thyme or rosemary) for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Once the turkey is roasted, pour the drippings into a measuring cup and let it sit for a few minutes. The fat will rise to the top.
  2. Skim off about 1/2 cup of the fat (you can discard the remaining fat or save it for another recipe).
  3. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the reserved fat with 1/2 cup of flour. Whisk constantly for about 2 minutes until the mixture becomes a light golden color — this is your roux.
  4. Slowly whisk in the broth, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer, allowing it to thicken for about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Add the drippings, salt, pepper, and soy sauce if using, to enhance the flavor. Stir well and continue to simmer until the gravy reaches your desired consistency.
  6. Finally, taste the gravy and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
