Yield Makes 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 cups Brown Turkey Stock
1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms (about 1/2 cup)
1 cup boiling water
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 package (10 ounces) white mushrooms, trimmed and cut into 1/4-inch dice
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Madeira or sherry

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, bring stock to a low boil over medium heat; cook until reduced by half, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place porcini in a small bowl, and cover with boiling water. Let soak until porcini are soft, about 10 minutes. Remove porcini, and gently squeeze out excess water; finely chop. Set aside.
  • Heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until foamy. Add white mushrooms, and season with salt and pepper. Add reserved porcini. Cook, stirring, until white mushrooms are soft, about 10 minutes.
  • Sprinkle flour over mushroom mixture, and cook until flour starts to brown, a few minutes more. Add wine; deglaze pan, scraping up browned bits on bottom and sides with a wooden spoon.
  • Stir stock into mushroom mixture. Bring to a gentle simmer over very low heat, and cook until thickened slightly, about 30 minutes. If gravy thickens too much, thin with a little water or stock. Season with salt and pepper; serve hot.

I added a splash of white wine to the gravy and it gave it a nice depth of flavor.

I used cremini mushrooms instead of white mushrooms and it was still delicious.

I've tried many mushroom gravy recipes, but this one is by far the best.

This mushroom gravy was a hit with my family! The flavor was rich and savory, and the texture was smooth and creamy.
