Giblet Gravy

By Sheila Lukins

2.5

(1)

Prepare the giblet gravy while the roasted turkey rests.

Ingredients

2 cups pan juices from the turkey
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Plum Glaze
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper, to taste
Giblet mixture
Giblet Broth , if needed

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    1. Simmer the pan juices in the roasting pan, scraping up the brown bits. Strain through a gravy separator to remove any fat.

    Step 2

    2. Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat. Gradually whisk in the fl our and continue whisking until it browns slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisking constantly, slowly pour in the pan juices and continue whisking until smooth. Slowly bring the gravy to a boil to thicken. Stir in the Plum Glaze , thyme, salt, pepper and the reserved giblet mixture; simmer, stirring, 10 minutes more. Thin with extra broth, if necessary. Adjust seasonings.

Île Flottante
Originally called omelette à la neige (snow omelet) in reference to the fluffy snow-like appearance of the meringue, île flottante (floating island) has a lengthy history that dates back to the 17th century.
Sofrito Bolognese
An ex-boyfriend’s mom—who emigrated from Colombia—made the best meat sauce—she would fry sofrito for the base and simply add cooked ground beef, sazón, and jarred tomato sauce. My version is a bit more bougie—it calls for caramelized tomato paste and white wine—but the result is just as good.
Fufu
Fufu is a dish that has been passed down through many generations and is seen as a symbol of Ghanaian identity and heritage. Making fufu traditionally is a very laborious task; this recipe mimics some of that hard work but with a few home-cook hacks that make for a far easier time.
Creamy Fondue Beans
All the cozy vibes of the classic gooey-cheesy dish, made into a 20-minute meal.
Smothered Italian Sausage
This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.
Mint Julep
A strip of lemon zest balances this refreshing spring classic.

Attention, martini drinkers and spritz drinkers: Please for a single line.
Palets Bretons
Palets bretons are oversize cookies that feature butter, and because they’re from Brittany, they’re traditionally made with beurre salé, salted butter.
