Turkey Drippings Gravy

Cultural Context

Turkey drippings gravy is a beloved staple in American households, especially during Thanksgiving and holiday feasts. This rich sauce is made from the flavorful drippings left in the roasting pan after cooking a turkey, often enhanced with flour to create a smooth texture. It embodies the spirit of comfort food, bringing families together around the dinner table. Today, variations can be found globally, with different herbs and spices added to suit regional tastes.

Quantities are estimated based on standard recipes for your convenience. The actual ingredients used in this video are accurate.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: cornstarch

Whole wheat flour adds fiber, while cornstarch is a gluten-free thickener.

chicken broth

🥗Healthier: low-sodium chicken broth

💰Cheaper: vegetable broth

Low-sodium options are healthier for salt intake.

1

Prepare a turkey in a bag, pouring chicken broth with poultry seasoning over it.

2

Cook the turkey using the sous-vide method.

3

Once the turkey is done, collect the liquid that has accumulated in the bag.

4

Measure out about 2 cups of the turkey broth and chicken broth mixture.

5

Taste the broth and adjust seasoning with salt, black pepper, and more poultry seasoning if needed.

6

Heat the broth mixture in a pan over medium heat until it simmers or gently boils.

7

In a separate bowl, whisk together 6 egg yolks.

8

Slowly drizzle the simmering broth into the egg yolks while whisking continuously to temper the eggs and avoid scrambling.

9

Once all the broth is incorporated, pour the mixture back into the pan and keep on medium-low heat, whisking until it thickens.

10

Once the gravy simmers again, taste for seasoning and adjust as necessary with more egg yolks or broth.

11

For a smoother texture, use an immersion blender to blend the gravy until smooth.

12

Optionally, add cream to the gravy for a creamier texture, if desired.
