Description
Turkey may be the star of dinner, but a savory homemade gravy can easily steal the show. It's simple to make and uses just three ingredients! Butter and flour form a rich base, while stock adds volume and flavor, creating a thick, smooth, glossy sauce as it reduces.
Tip: Customize the flavor of your gravy with salt, pepper, Italian or poultry seasoning, or with fresh herbs like thyme or sage before serving.
Directions
Gradually whisk in 4 cups cooking stock or broth. Bring to a boil, whisking constantly.
Reduce heat to medium-low and gently boil for 15 to 20 minutes or until desired consistency, whisking occasionally. Season to taste.
