Ingredients
- 2 onion cut into wedges, yellow
- 2 carrot cut into 2" chunks
- 2 celery ribs cut into 2" chunks
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper coarse ground
- 2 turkey wings
- 8 cups water
- 4 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1/2 cup flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
- Toss turkey, onion, carrot and celery in oil, salt and pepper.
- Roast in a baking dish or baking sheet for 1 hour.
- Add turkey and vegetables and drippings to a large pot with the 8 cups of water.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for 2 hours.
- If liquid is evaporating, add more water to keep level of liquid above the turkey and vegetables (roughly, about 1/3 of it should evaporate leaving about 6 cups of gravy).
- Strain the gravy using a large strainer (fine mesh is best) then put the gravy back into the pot.
- Turn on medium heat and bring to a simmer.
- Mash together the butter and flour and whisk it into the gravy.
- Cook for 6-8 minutes until gravy is smooth and thickened.
- Check at last minute before serving for seasonings (if you need more salt or pepper this would be where to add it).
