Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, bring the water (or broth), turkey parts, shredded carrot, celery and onion, and bay leaf to a boil.
- Cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer, about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until liver is done; remove liver and set aside.
- Continue to cook, covered, until giblets are done, about 2 hours more.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove turkey parts to a cutting board. Let cool slightly, then carefully remove all bones from meat. Cut up the turkey and liver into fine pieces; set aside.
- Make a paste by whisking together 1/2 cup water and the flour in a glass measuring cup.
- Gradually whisk the paste into the warm broth, whisking briskly to combine. Bring to a boil and boil gently, whisking all the while, for 2-3 minutes until gravy is thickened. Now reduce heat to low and stir in the turkey drippings, milk or cream, and finely chopped turkey meat.
- Heat through briefly, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour into a gravy boat to serve. ENJOY your perfect gravy!
