Time 3h15m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

turkey parts (giblets, gizzards, neck, and liver)
4 cups water or 4 cups turkey broth
1 carrot, shredded
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
3 -4 tablespoons onions, finely chopped
1 bay leaf
1/3-1/2 cup turkey drippings (with browned bits)
1/2 cup water
6 tablespoons flour
1/4 cup milk (optional) or 1/4 cup cream (optional)
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, bring the water (or broth), turkey parts, shredded carrot, celery and onion, and bay leaf to a boil.
  • Cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer, about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until liver is done; remove liver and set aside.
  • Continue to cook, covered, until giblets are done, about 2 hours more.
  • Use a slotted spoon to remove turkey parts to a cutting board. Let cool slightly, then carefully remove all bones from meat. Cut up the turkey and liver into fine pieces; set aside.
  • Make a paste by whisking together 1/2 cup water and the flour in a glass measuring cup.
  • Gradually whisk the paste into the warm broth, whisking briskly to combine. Bring to a boil and boil gently, whisking all the while, for 2-3 minutes until gravy is thickened. Now reduce heat to low and stir in the turkey drippings, milk or cream, and finely chopped turkey meat.
  • Heat through briefly, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Pour into a gravy boat to serve. ENJOY your perfect gravy!
