Ingredients
- 8 tbsp unsalted butter
- 6 tbsp all purpose flour
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried thyme or 2 tbsp fresh chopped thyme
- 1 tsp salt
- 6 cups turkey stock or chicken stock
Instructions
- Place a pot on the stove over medium heat.
- Add the butter to the pot, stir until almost melted. Turn the heat to medium low.
- Add the flour and whisk well for about 5 minutes until it starts smelling nutty and changing colors.
- Add in the onion powder, garlic powder, thyme and salt. Stir to combine.
- Add 1/4 cup of broth slowly to the mixture, stir well until it forms a paste. Then add the rest of the broth very slowly and stir constantly to avoid lumps.
- Once all the broth is mixed, turn the heat to medium and stir until the gravy starts simmering and has thickened to your liking, about 10 minutes.
- Serve immediately or store in a jar and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
Notes
- This homemade turkey gravy recipe yields about 5 cups of gravy. You can easily cut the recipe in half if you're serving a smaller party.
- You can make this gravy up to 4 days ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the fridge until you’re ready to reheat it.
- To reheat, I suggest using a saucepan on the stove top. If you’re using the microwave, make sure to stir it every 20 seconds so the gravy heats evenly.
- Cook the flour for longer if you like the gravy to be darker. Make sure not to burn the flour. The more flour is cooked, the nuttier it will smell and taste.
- Add the stock slowly to the flour mixture to avoid lumps. Add a little bit of stock fist and whisk to form a paste, and then add the stock slowly and stir constantly.
- Gravy freezes very well and can be made weeks ahead of time as well. Once the turkey gravy is ready, let it cool completely and then transfer it to a freezer safe container. Freeze for up to 6 weeks. To serve, thaw it in the fridge overnight and then reheat it in a sauce pan over medium heat.
