What You Need to Make Turkey Gravy

Pan drippings from turkey: This has all the flavoring you need to make your turkey gravy perfection!Chicken broth: The chicken broth makes it so that you have MORE gravy and makes it rich, creamy and silky smooth.Flour: I used all purpose flour for this recipe! This is what will thicken it up! Salt and pepper: Add these seasonings to taste!

Let’s Make Some Gravy!

Making your turkey gravy couldn’t be easier. Just a couple of ingredients and a few steps to follow before you are drizzling this gravy on top of everything!

Hot drippings: Make sure that your turkey drippings are still hot when adding them to the gravy. If they have already cooled then warm them back up on the stove. Don’t let them burn! What is a roux? A roux is a mixture that you make outside of the drippings. Once you add it to them, you stir until everything thickens! A roux is equal parts fat to flour. Cornstrarch or flour? Substitute cornstarch for your flour if you prefer a different thickening agent. Mix equal parts cornstarch and water or broth.Thick or thin: Thicken or thin out your gravy by adding more or less flour or cornstarch to your gravy.Smooth gravy: For a smoother gravy strain the pan drippings before adding them to the gravy. This will leave out the thicker chunks of drippings. Whisking your gravy is a key instruction so you get a smooth textured gravy. If it is lumpy pour it through a sieve before serving.Serve it warm: Serve your turkey gravy warm. If is begins to cool slightly, simply warm up in the microwave for 15 to 20 seconds at a time until it is warm through.

Refrigerator: Once it is completely cooled, place in an airtight container or ziplock baggie. This will store in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days.Reheating: When you are ready to reheat it then pour it back into a saucepan and add a 1 to 2 tablespoons of chicken broth or water if you want to thin it If not, just heat it on low heat gently, stirring it occasionally until it is warmed through. This will take about 10 to 15 minutes.
