Turkey Gravy
Cook Time :
15 minutes
Ingredients
  • (1/4 cup) Lard – 1 quart
  • (1/4 cup) Flour
  • (2 cups) Turkey Stock – 1 quart
  • (to taste) salt

Directions

  1. In saute pan melt fat(you can use lard, tallow or butter; we sell pasture based clean rendered lard and tallow) on medium heat.  Each has their own flavor and none will overpower a well made turkey stock.
  2. Whisk flour into the fat and stirring constantly as you cook on medium high heat for 1-2 minutes.
  3. Slowly add warm broth to pan whisking constantly, make sure each bit of broth is incorporated before adding more to maintain a smooth consistancy.
  4. Cook gravy for 5-7 minutes on medium to medium low heat after it reaches a simmer.
  5. Add any drippings from the turkey roasting pan and whisk in.
  6. Remove pan from heat and Salt and Pepper to taste.

Enjoy.
