TURKEY DRIPPINGS GRAVY
- Turkey drippings will already have seasonings and the stock will have salt, unless you use low sodium stock. Because of this, don’t add salt or pepper until after you have finished cooking the gravy.
- If unable to find turkey stock, chicken stock will work.
- If you’re having trouble getting the flour clumps to clear out, whisk or use the back of a spoon to flatten them and mix them in. For the best gravy, it’s important to get that flour completely dissolved into the drippings before adding the stock.
- If you don’t have turkey drippings, replace it with ¼ cup butter.
- It’s important to remove the gravy before it fully thickens as it will continue to cook once removed from the heat.
- It’s important to keep stirring once you add the stock or it will begin congealing, which isn’t the desired texture for gravy.
