Taisen's Turkey Gravy step by step
- Cut up all of the giblets. You can cook them first if you prefer but I find that it doesn't turn out well that way as the meat got to tough.
- In a medium saucepan, add the cut up giblets and neck meat if using that..
- Add in turkey drippings / stock from your turkey pan. Turn the heat on medium high . Get the liquid boiling and boil for 10 to 15 minutes stirring a good bit..
- Turn heat down to medium low heat. Add in more turkey stock , or vegetable stock. If your adding onion , do that now. Also add in mushrooms if using those..
- I end up adding most of the juice from my turkey to make a LOT of gravy..
- Add in salt and pepper. You can also add garlic if you like.
- In a bowl , mix some milk and cornstarch to make a paste. Slowly add it into your gravy while stirring constantly. Make this as thick as you like. Always taste and add more salt and / or pepper to your liking..
- After you have this to your desired consistently set heat on low or warm until it is time to serve..
- Just before serving, turn the heat up if necessary to make it hotter if it cooled down..
- When your ready to start putting things away and saving. Add in more or the rest of the turkey juices into the saucepan or another container , stir and store this to use the next day. You may or may not have to thicken it again. Hope you enjoy ! I use this on the 3 rd day for my turkey soup :).
