ROUX GRAVY We love making our turkey gravy just before we eat, but you can make it ahead. Just warm it up right before dinner, adding a little extra stock if needed. Use a metal spatula to scrape any bits of meat stuck to the bottom of the roasting pan. Melt butter in a small pot. Add in flour to make a roux. Slowly pour in your pan drippings.
If you don’t have enough, you can top it up with chicken stock. 2 cup or stock or pan juices, stirring between each increment, until reaching your desired texture. Remember: thick gravy can be fixed and thinned out, but its harder to thicken a watery gravy. Add in Worcestershire sauce, herbs or other seasonings to suit your taste. Since our turkey gravy is a roux gravy, keep in mind it will continue to thicken as it cools. If it has thickened too much, just add a little more liquid before it hits the table. Generally, gravy made with pan drippings does not need any more seasonings as all of those pan juices contain all the salt, pepper and flavour.
It’s important to taste test it once it’s done and save adding any extra flavourings at the end. WHAT TO SERVE WITH GRAVY There’s nothing better than a warm, homemade delicious turkey gravy.
