This is a very simple recipe, but for some reason I have always had difficulty making a tasty gravy. I have finally perfected Mom’s turkey gravy, and it sure does dress up a turkey dinner.
Ingredients:
- Giblets from turkey
- Flour
- Bay leaf
- Salt
- Pepper
Directions:
Take the turkey giblets and place them in a pan of cold water. Add bay leaf and a few dashes of salt and pepper. Simmer while the turkey is cooking to make stock. Add water if necessary; just keep the heat low.
When the turkey is done, remove it from the roasting pan and use the drippings for gravy. Place the roasting pan on the stove and whisk some flour and water in a small container. Add the flour mixture and turkey stock to the drippings, and simmer until the gravy reaches your desired thickness. Keep adding the flour mixture and stock until the flavor is to your liking. Season with salt and pepper.
