Pan Gravy From Drippings Recipes

Steps:

• After removing beef from pan, scrape all brown particles from pan and pour particles and drippings into bowl or glass measuring cup. Skim 2 tablespoons of fat from the top of the drippings; add fat to 1-quart saucepan. Discard any remaining fat; reserve remaining drippings. Stir flour into fat in saucepan.
• Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture has thickened; remove from heat. Gradually stir in reserved drippings plus enough broth or water to equal 1 cup. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in a few drops browning sauce for darker color. Stir in salt and pepper.

Steps:

• While turkey rests, pour pan drippings through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Discard solids. Skim fat and reserve 3 tablespoons. Add broth to drippings to measure 4 1/2 cups.
• Set pan across two burners and heat over medium. Add reserved fat and white wine. Cook, stirring and scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon, until mixture thickens and holds a trail, 3 minutes.
• Add flour and whisk to combine. Continue whisking until flour tastes fully cooked, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in dripping mixture. Cook, whisking, until gravy is thickened, 8 minutes. If desired, strain gravy through sieve. Stir in vinegar. Season with salt and pepper; keep warm until serving.

Steps:

• Remove roast from pan and pour off any fat. Place over high heat (use 2 burners if necessary) and deglaze pan with wine and broth, scraping any bits stuck to the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or spatula. Once these solids are dissolved, pour liquid into a saucepan and add the bay leaf and peppercorns. Reduce for 5 minutes over high heat or until reduced by 1/3.
• At this point you basically have a jus which could be used to sauce your roast. To create a gravy, reduce the heat to medium and whisk in 2 tablespoons of white roux. Return to a simmer, whisking constantly. Continuing to cook once a simmer has been reached will result in a smoother sauce, but not a thicker one.
• Since all starch thickened sauces thicken as they cool, it's a good idea to make your gravy a little on the loose side.

Steps:

• While the turkey rests, make the gravy: Use a fine-mesh strainer to strain the turkey pan drippings into a medium bowl, leaving behind any browned bits, or "fond," stuck to the pan. Press down on the solids to get as much liquid as possible into the bowl; discard the solids. Pour the liquid into a measuring cup or a fat separator and allow the fat to rise to the top. Meanwhile, place the roasting pan across two burners over medium-low heat. When the pan is sizzling, add the wine and stir, scraping up all the fond in the pan. Turn off the heat and pour the wine mixture through a fine-mesh strainer set over a bowl.
• Ladle or spoon off the fat from the pan drippings and discard; set aside the jus. In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Then sprinkle in the flour and whisk until the flour is completely incorporated and light golden brown, 1-2 minutes. Slowly add the wine mixture, whisking constantly. When it has fully absorbed into the roux, slowly add the reserved jus. Small additions of liquid and continuous whisking are the keys to smooth gravy.
• Finish the gravy by adding turkey or chicken stock a ½ cup at a time and whisking; taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as you go. (You'll need a total of 2½-3 cups of liquid to make the gravy.) When the gravy is thick yet pourable and perfectly seasoned to taste, transfer it to a bowl or gravy boat and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Pour pan drippings into a measuring cup. Loosen the browned bits from the roasting pan and add to drippings. Skim fat. , Reserve 1/4 cup fat and transfer to a small saucepan; whisk in flour until smooth. Add enough broth or water to pan drippings to measure 2 cups. Gradually stir into flour mixture in saucepan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Season with salt, pepper and browning sauce if desired.

Steps:

• In skillet or roasting pan, add flour to drippings; blend well.
• Cook over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes until smooth and light brown, stirring constantly.
• Add broth; cook until mixture boils and thickens, stirring constantly.
• Stir in salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Pour fat from drippings into a bowl and reserve. Whisk flour into remaining drippings left in pan; mixture will seem dry. Add 2 tablespoons reserved fat, or as needed, to the drippings mixture to combine with flour.
• Place pan of drippings mixture over low heat and toast flour until light brown and mixture gives off a nutty fragrance, about 5 minutes.
• Drizzle about 1/3 cup cold chicken stock at a time into pan drippings, whisking each addition of stock into mixture until thoroughly combined. Continue whisking, scraping any browned pan drippings from the bottom of the pan into gravy; bring to a simmer. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until gravy is thick and flour has combined with the liquid, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Adjust thickness of gravy; if too thick, whisk in a little more stock. If gravy is too thin, continue to simmer, whisking constantly, until reduced and thickened, about 10 more minutes. For the smoothest texture, strain gravy before serving.

Steps:

• Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat.
• Whisk in flour til well blended.
• Slowly add broth, whisking continually.
• Add Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and pepper.
• Cook over medicum heat til thickened, stirring from time to time.
• Keep an eye on the saucepan, the thickening process goes quickly.

Steps:

• In 1-quart heavy saucepan, heat 1 1/2 cups of the broth, the bouillon granules and pepper over medium heat, stirring constantly, until bouillon granules are dissolved.
• In small bowl, stir remaining 1/2 cup broth and the flour, using wire whisk, until smooth. Gradually stir flour mixture into broth in saucepan. Heat to boiling. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened and bubbly. Stir in a few drops of browning sauce if a darker color is desired.
