Instructions
5 Note: I like to make my own broth but feel free to use good quality store-bought as well. 0 In a saucepan, melt the butter until it shimmers. Season the butter with two pinches of salt and a dash of black pepper, stirring to infuse the flavors for a few seconds. 1 Next, add the all-purpose flour to the butter and stir continuously. Continue to stir until the mixture reaches a sauce-like consistency, which should take about 30 seconds. Ensure that any raw flour taste is fully cooked off. 2 Gradually incorporate the broth into the mixture, stirring gently. Allow the mixture to thicken over medium-low heat for approximately 6-10 minutes. 3 Once the gravy has reached your desired thickness, transfer it to a glass Tupperware container. Don't be concerned if it appears slightly runny; it will continue to thicken as it cools. 4 Refrigerate the gravy for 3-4 days. On Thanksgiving Day, reheat it and consider adding some of the drippings from the turkey for an extra layer of flavor. Alternatively, you can freeze the gravy and defrost it the night before for future use.View original recipe
