Steps:
- Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion, celery and thyme until vegetables are very soft and golden brown, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in flour and cook until just beginning to brown, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes.
- Gradually stir in 2 cups broth. Cook, stirring frequently with a whisk, until thickened and smooth, about 3 minutes; cool. Refrigerate gravy base and remaining 2 cups broth up to 2 days before serving.
- When turkey is finished roasting, remove from pan to let rest. Skim fat from pan drippings. Add turkey pan drippings to refrigerated gravy base in a medium saucepan; heat over medium heat, stirring frequently. Add reserved broth 1/4 cup at a time until desired thickness. Simmer until heated through and serve.

[email protected]This gravy was okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. It was a little too thick for my taste and it didn't have much flavor. I probably won't make this gravy again.
Madison Neumann
[email protected]This gravy was a disappointment. It was bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly but it just didn't turn out right. I ended up throwing it out and making a different gravy.
