Gluten-Free Tips:
All of the above recipes are gluten-free. If you have questions, you can find a lot of information by clicking on the “Gluten-Free” tab at the top of the page.
- Cornstarch Slurry
- 1/2 cup room temperature turkey stock (recipe above)
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- Gravy
- 5 cups turkey stock
- Turkey pan drippings
- Kosher or fine sea salt and ground black pepper
- In a bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup stock with the cornstarch until smooth with no lumps. Stir again before using.
- In a large saucepan, heat the 4 cups of stock and pan drippings over medium-high heat until just below a simmer. There will be wisps of steam coming off the surface and small bubbles will form at the edges. Whisk in the cornstarch mixture and cook, whisking constantly, until the liquid comes to a full boil and has thickened, about 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Serve while hot.
- Yield: about 5-1/2 cups
