Giblet Gravy Ii Recipes

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, place giblets (except liver); add enough water to cover. Add celery, onion, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 1 to 2 hours or until giblets are tender. Add liver during last 15 minutes of cooking.
• Drain giblet mixture, reserving broth and giblets. Discard celery and onion.
• After removing turkey from roasting pan, remove 1/2 cup drippings (turkey juices and fat); reserve. Pour remaining drippings into 2-cup measuring cup; add enough giblet broth and chicken broth to measure 2 cups; set aside.
• Place reserved 1/2 cup drippings in roasting pan or 12-inch skillet. Stir in flour. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly and scraping up brown bits in pan, until smooth and browned. Gradually stir in 2 cups broth mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture boils and thickens. Remove meat from neck; finely chop meat and giblets and add to gravy if desired. Stir in salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Pour the contents of the giblet bags into a large saucepan. Cover with water and boil until cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn off the heat and set aside. Remove the giblets from the pan, allow them to cool, and then chop up the gizzards and liver. Pick the meat from the neck. Discard the bones.
• Pour all the turkey drippings out of the roasting pan into a separate container. Allow grease to separate from the juices. Ladle out the fat into another bowl.
• Place the roasting pan over 2 burners over medium heat (there should be lots of yummy brown bits in the pan). Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of the fat back into the pan. Whisk it around to evenly distribute it throughout the pan. Sprinkle 5 to 6 tablespoons of flour over the grease and whisk to combine it with the fat, loosening the bits from the bottom of the pan a little in the process. Cook the roux until it becomes a deep golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Pour in the chicken broth, whisking constantly. Add 2 to 4 cups, depending on your need. Cook the gravy, whisking gently, until the mixture begins to thicken. Pour in a little bit of the turkey drippings, but be aware that because the brine is so salty, these drippings are very salty. Keep cooking the gravy until thick, adding in chopped giblets, to taste, as well as plenty of black pepper. Use the giblet water from the saucepan to thin the gravy if it gets too thick.
• Serve when very thick and flavorful.

Steps:

• Heat pan drippings in a large skillet over medium heat; gradually add flour and stir until golden brown.
• Slowly whisk in turkey stock until blended and smooth. Stir in giblets, and season with sage, pepper, and salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, or until thickened.

Steps:

• In a 2 quart saucepan, simmer the giblets, salt, pepper, bouillon, celery and onion in 1 quart of water for 40 to 50 minutes.
• Discard celery, onion and gizzard. Chop liver and neck meat and return to pan. Add chicken broth or if you have a turkey, use drippings (about 1 1/2 cups and 1 can of chicken broth).
• Chop eggs and add to broth. Mix cornstarch and milk together and slowly add to broth. Stir well until thickened. Reduce heat to low.

Steps:

• Stage 1 MAKE BROTH.
• Up to 3 days ahead cut turkey neck and heart in half.
• Put into a large saucepan along with gizzard and remaining broth ingredients.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer gently, uncovered, 1 1/2 hours.
• Add liver and simmer 30 minutes longer or until gizzard is very tender.
• Remove giblets to a cutting board.
• Strain broth into a large cup measure, pressing vegetables to extract as much broth as possible.
• Discard vegetables.
• Add water to broth if needed, to make 6 cups.
• Chop giblets and neck meat.
• Refrigerate.
• Stage 2 THICKEN BROTH.
• Mash butter and flour with a fork until blended to a paste. Break into 4 chunks.
• Bring broth to a boil, reduce heat to low and gradually whisk in flour mixture, 1 chunk at a time, until blended.
• Whisk until thickened and boiling. Boil 3 minutes minutes longer to cook out any "floury" taste.
• Cover surface of gravy to keep skin from forming.
• Refrigerate.
• Stage 3 FINISH GRAVY.
• After turkey is removed from roasting pan: Spoon fat off pan drippings and discard.
• Stir juices in pan (add up to 2°C water if juices have evaporated), scraping up brown bits on bottom of pan.
• Add no more than 2 cups of drippings to gravy or it will be too thin.
• Stir in giblets and neck meat.
• Heat and season to taste.

Steps:

• Dissolve bouillon cubes in boiling water; add giblets, neck, celery, and onion.
• Cover and simmer for 2 hours or until giblets are tender; strain, reserving giblets.
• (Do not add seasonings; the bouillon will have yielded enough.) To thicken gravy, combine flour and a small amount of cold water; add to broth.
• Cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened.
• Dice giblets and stir into gravy before serving.
