Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp turkey drippings
  • 1 1/2 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 1 cup turkey stock
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • salt
  • pepper
  • rosemary and/or thyme if desired

Instructions

  • Heat fat in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Whisk in flour, ensuring it browns without burning, for about 5 minutes until golden brown.
  • Gradually whisk in stock, cooking for 3-4 minutes to thicken. Turn off heat and stir in butter, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
  • If too thick, thin with additional turkey stock, 1 tablespoon at a time. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Remember to whisk continuously while adding flour to fat, and add liquid slowly to avoid lumps.

Notes

To reheat, add gravy to a pot over low heat and whisk to make sure it stays smooth. You can add a bit more stock if it is too thick.
You can also store in the fridge until you want to enjoy.
