Giblet Gravy
Ingredients
  • 1 package of giblets and neck from turkey, excluding liver
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 cup turkey drippings
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 6 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 large hard-cooked egg, chopped
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary ingredients for the recipe.
2
Combine turkey giblets, neck, and 4 cups of water in a saucepan; heat it up until the mixture reaches boiling point. Gradually decrease the heat to low and let it simmer for approximately 1 hour, or until the broth has reduced to 3 cups.
3
Take a fine-mesh strainer and strain the broth, reserving 1/2 cup of giblets in the process. Set the reserved giblets aside for later use.
4
In a separate saucepan, combine the strained broth and turkey drippings over medium heat. In another small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of cold water and cornstarch until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps. Gradually pour the cornstarch mixture into the saucepan with the broth, stirring constantly until the mixture reaches boiling point.
5
While the broth is coming to a boil, take a sharp knife and finely chop the reserved giblets. Set them aside for now.
6
Reduce the heat to low and gently stir in the chopped giblets and a hard-cooked egg into the gravy. Continue to simmer until the gravy reaches the desired consistency, approximately 5 minutes.
7
Season the finished gravy with salt and black pepper to taste.
