TURKEY GIBLET GRAVY
Steps:
- For the giblet stock: Heat the oil in a 6 1/2-quart stockpot over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the neck and backbone and saute 5 to 6 minutes or until browned. Add the giblets, onion, carrot, celery and kosher salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Pour in the water and add the thyme, rosemary, bay leaf and black peppercorns.
- Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Uncover, reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 1/2 hours or until the stock reduces to 3 cups.
- Strain the stock through a fine mesh strainer and cool slightly. Discard all solids but the giblets. Chop the giblets and set aside.
- For the giblet gravy: Place 2 cups of the giblet stock in a 4-quart saucier over medium heat.
- Combine 1/2 cup of cool stock with the all-purpose flour in a jar with a tightly fitted lid. Shake vigorously until starch dissolves and no lumps remain.
- Gradually add the flour slurry to stock, whisking constantly. Bring to a boil and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until thickened slightly.
- Combine the remaining 1/2 cup of cool stock with the potato starch in the lidded jar and shake vigorously until the starch dissolves and no lumps remain.
- Turn off the heat, remove the saucier from the burner and whisk until the liquid temperature decreases to 190 degrees F. Return to low heat and whisk in the potato starch slurry, rosemary, sage, thyme, salt and pepper. Simmer for about 5 minutes to heat through and thicken, then season with additional salt and pepper, if desired. Add the chopped giblets and stir to combine. Keep warm in a thermos until ready to serve.

Steps:
- Twelve to 24 hours before cooking the turkey, remove the giblets and dry the turkey inside and out with paper towels. Rub the Dry Brine on all sides of the turkey, completely seasoning the exterior as well as the interior cavity. Place the turkey in a pan inside the refrigerator overnight.
- Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
- When ready to cook, remove the turkey from the refrigerator and pat dry with paper towels. Cut one of the onions into quarters. Place the onion quarters, herbs and one head of the garlic inside the turkey. Tie the legs together with a single piece of string and tuck the wings under the body.
- Chop the remaining onion. Combine the chopped onion, carrots, celery and remaining garlic in a large roasting pan. Place the turkey on top of the vegetables in the roasting pan.
- Brush the entire surface of the turkey with the melted butter and sprinkle lightly with salt. Pour any remaining melted butter over the vegetables in the base of the pan. Place the turkey in the oven to roast on the center rack with the legs towards the back wall of the oven.
- After 45 minutes, remove the turkey from the oven and set on the stovetop. Carefully tilt the pan to one side and use a ladle to baste the butter over the breast of the turkey. Return the turkey to the oven, this time with the breast toward the back wall of the oven. Continue basting and rotating the turkey every 45 minutes until done. The turkey is done when an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees F, 2 1/2 to 3 hours total. If at any point during the cooking the skin of the breast becomes too dark, cover the breast with aluminum foil and continue cooking to doneness.
- When the turkey is done, remove to a cooling rack to rest for 30 to 45 minutes.
- To make the gravy, place the roasting pan on the stovetop. Turn the heat beneath the roasting pan to medium. Cook the vegetables, stirring constantly, until the butter remaining in the pan is translucent, up to 6 minutes. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the butter, if necessary. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir until a thick paste forms. Pour in the wine, stirring well and scraping the bottom of the pan to release any brown bits that remain stuck to the pan. Add the chicken stock and continue stirring until the stock reaches a simmer. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until flavorful and thickened to your liking.
- Transfer the entire gravy mixture to a saucepot and bring back to a simmer. Whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper and strain the gravy into a serving container. Serve with the carved turkey.
- Combine the salt, sugar, garlic powder, pepper, fennel and sage in an airtight container and shake to thoroughly combine. Keeps for up to 6 months.

Steps:
- Remove the giblets and neck from the turkey; reserve the liver for another use. Rinse and dry the turkey and allow it to come to room temperature before stuffing and roasting.
- Place the neck, gizzard and heart of the turkey in a saucepan with the water, 1 onion, the carrot, celery and parsley. Bring to a boil and cook, skimming the surface, for 5 minutes. Reduce heat and simmer about 40 minutes, until the liquid has reduced to 2 cups. Strain and set aside.
- Mince the gizzard, heart and meat from the neck and reserve.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Season turkey cavity with salt and pepper; rub skin with butter or oil.
- Stuff main cavity and neck cavity, then skewer or truss to close. Place extra stuffing in a small casserole, to be heated just before serving.
- Place turkey on a V-shaped rack and roast, breast side down, for 30 minutes. If you do not have such a rack, roast the turkey with breast side up the entire time.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees, turn turkey breast side up and continue roasting another 2-2 1/2 hours, until a thermometer inserted in thick part of thigh registers 165 degrees. One-half hour before the turkey is finished, slice the remaining onion and scatter in the pan.
- Remove turkey from the oven and allow to stand 30 minutes.
- Drain excess fat from roasting pan. Set the pan on a burner, scatter in flour and cook over medium heat several minutes, stirring and scraping the pan. Whisk in the wine and the giblet stock. Cook a few minutes longer, until sauce has thickened. Strain into a saucepan, forcing most solids through strainer. Add minced giblets and season with salt and pepper.
- Remove the stuffing from the turkey, carve the turkey, and serve with stuffing and reheated gravy.

Steps:
- Cut off the wing tips of the turkey. Set aside for broth or soup.
- Cut the lemon lengthwise in half and cut each half crosswise into quarter-inch-thick slices. Cut the apple lengthwise in half. Cut each half crosswise into quarter-inch-thick slices.
- In a mixing bowl combine the lemon, apple, parsley, onion, bay leaves, thyme and oil and blend well.
- Sprinkle the turkey inside and out with salt and a generous grinding of pepper.
- Fill the cavity of the turkey with the lemon and apple mixture. Flex the thighs and wing joints of the turkey. Truss or tie the turkey with string.
- Blend four tablespoons of the butter and four tablespoons of the flour with the fingers.
- Rub the turkey all over with the butter-flour mixture, massaging it thoroughly for several minutes.
- Sprinkle the bottom of a shallow roasting pan with the remaining six tablespoons of flour. Place a rack inside the pan and arrange the turkey breast-side up on the rack. Let the turkey sit outside the oven for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Place the turkey in the oven and roast 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the remaining eight tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan and stir in the water. Baste the turkey with the melted butter mixture. Reduce the oven heat to 350 degrees and continue roasting the turkey, basting often with the butter mixture, for about one hour and 40 minutes. Remove the turkey and let rest for 20 minutes before carving.
- Bring the turkey or chicken broth to the boil and add the turkey heart and gizzard. Let simmer 10 minutes. Strain, reserving both the broth and giblets. Finely chop the giblets and set aside. Set the strained broth aside.
- As the turkey rests, skim off the semi-clear liquid from the drippings in the pan, leaving the browned flour and the particles that cling to the bottom and sides of the pan intact. Place the pan on top of the stove and add the reserved turkey or chicken broth. Scrape all around to dissolve the browned particles that cling to the bottom and sides of the pan.
- Strain the broth into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Let simmer, skimming the surface as necessary, about 10 minutes. Add the chopped giblets and the chopped egg. Slice the turkey and serve with the gravy on the side.

Steps:
- Season the turkey on the outside with salt and pepper, and place it, breast side up, in a heavy roasting pan just large enough to accommodate it. Arrange the liver, neck, and gizzard around the turkey. (The giblets are often in a little package hidden in the neck end of the bird.) Fold a sheet of aluminum foil to create a triple thickness, making it just large enough to cover the breast. Rub butter evenly on one side of the folded foil, then place it, buttered side down, over the breast.
- Slide the bird into the oven and turn on the oven to 350°F (there is no need to preheat). Roast for about 1 hour. Remove the foil and continue to roast the turkey for about 1 1/2 hours longer, or until a thermometer inserted into the space between the thigh and the breast without touching bone reads 140°F. Transfer the turkey to a platter, tent loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest in a warm spot for at least 20 minutes before carving.
- To make the gravy, remove the liver, gizzard, and neck from the roasting pan. Remove the meat from the neck and discard the bones. Place the neck meat, gizzard, and liver in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Do not process to a paste. Set the giblets aside.
- Check the juices in the roasting pan. If you have a lot of juices, transfer them to a glass pitcher, skim off the fat with a ladle, and return 3 tablespoons of the fat to the pan. If you have very few juices, place the pan on the stove top, boil down the juices until they caramelize on the bottom of the pan and separate from the fat, and pour off all but 3 tablespoons of the fat. Add the flour to the fat in the pan over medium heat and stir together for 1 minute to cook the flour and form a roux. If you have degreased juices, add broth to the measuring pitcher to total 3 cups. Gradually stir in the broth or broth-juices mixture and continue to stir over medium to medium-high heat until the roux and the caramelized juices dissolve into the gravy and the gravy is smooth and has thickened to a nice consistency. Add the ground giblets, stir well, and season with salt and pepper. Pour the gravy into a warmed sauceboat.
- Carve the bird and serve with the gravy.
ROAST TURKEY WITH CORN BREAD STUFFING AND GIBLET GRAVY
A flavorful turkey prepared in an interesting way. It is soaked in brine, which helps tenderize the bird, and then rubbed with a citrus-thyme butter. The butter keeps the turkey moist and also enriches the pan drippings for the gravy. The stuffing borrows from the long tradition of corn breads in America. Be sure to make the Giblet Broth before you start roasting the turkey. From Bon Appétit, November 1996. The cooking time is for roasting the turkey since everything else can be prepared during the same time frame.

GIBLET GRAVY (FOR ROAST TURKEY)
When I make a roasted turkey, this is how I make my giblet gravy. There is never enough giblets when you only use the giblets from the turkey, so here is my WONDERFUL and EASY recipe. If you have a large turkey, you may want to double this recipe. Any left over gravy can be frozen for future use. NOTE: The person who wrote a bad review must have done something wrong or did not include the turkey drippings. Please disregard that review and try this gravy for yourself. If you have any questions, e-mail me: [email protected]

Steps:
- In a large skillet, pour in the chicken livers with their juice. A container is approximately 1 lb.
- Sautè the livers, turning them, until they are done.
- Allow to slightly cool, and cut the livers into small, but not too small, pieces.
- Place the gravy into a large pot.
- Add the cut up chicken livers.
- Heat, stirring every so often.
- Add about 3/4 cup of the turkey drippings.
- If you are wondering about seasonings, stop worrying. You do not need any seasonings, other than those already in the canned gravy, and the chicken livers along with the turkey drippings completes the taste.
