Donna has been using Chef John’s version with great success! Ingredients: Fresh Turkey wings 2 large carrots 3 ribs celery 1 large onion 2 tablespoons oil 2 cloves garlic 2-3 sprigs fresh Thyme 6 tablespoons fat (combination of turkey fat and butter) 6 tablespoons all purpose flour Salt and pepper to taste Herbs of choice (rosemary or sage) Directions: Preheat oven to 400F In a roasting pan, place roughly chopped vegetables. Add the 2 tablespoons of oil to coat the vegetables. Place the turkey wings on top. Roast for 45-60 minutes or until the meat is browned and the vegetables are caramelized. Place the turkey wings and vegetables, garlic cloves and thyme in a stock pot. Place the roasting pan on the stovetop. With high heat, add 1 cup water to deglaze the roasting pan. Add deglazed liquid to the stock pot. Add enough water to completely cover the wings. Bring to a boil, immediately reduce to a low simmer. Cook for 2 ½ to 3 hours or until the meat falls away from the bone. Strain the mixture and discard the solids. You should have approximately 4 cups of turkey stock. Cool in the refrigerator until the fat solidifies on the surface. Skim off the fat but save it for the roux. TO MAKE THE GRAVY: In a medium saucepan, heat the 6 tablespoons of fat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes. Gradually add the turkey stock, whisking to combine. Cook, stirring constantly until gravy comes to a boil. Add salt and pepper and a choice of herbs. Serve immediately or cool and store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat when ready to use. Thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe to our channel!
