Ingredients
 

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • Freshly ground pepper and salt to taste
  • 3-4 cups homemade turkey broth or chicken broth
  • 1 tsp. chicken bouillon I used Epicure chicken bouillon
  • 1/2 Tbsp. sherry optional

Turkey Broth

  • Turkey giblets
  • turkey neck
  • 2 celery cut into large chunks
  • 2 carrots cut into large chunks
  • 2 onions cut in half
  • 6 cups water adding more when reduced

Instructions
 

  • For the turkey broth, place all ingredients into a medium sized pot and simmer for 5-6 hours, replenish water as needed. You should have 3-4 cups at the end. Strain, use right away or let cool and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • For the gravy, melt the butter and stir in the flour, cook for 2 min. Slowly add the turkey broth while whisking, if still warm it works better. Keep stirring until starting to boil, whisk in the chicken bouillon. Simmer until thickened, if too thick add more turkey broth at little at a time until desired consistency. Add the sherry and let simmer for 3 min. Serve immediately or let cool and freeze.
