How to Make Foolproof Giblet Gravy
- Rinse the giblets thoroughly and place them in a saucepan. Cover with 4 cups of cold water and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 1-1.5 hours, or until giblets are very tender. Remove giblets from broth; set aside to cool slightly.
- Once cool enough to handle, chop the giblets finely. Reserve about 1 cup of the giblet broth; discard the rest or save for stock.
- In a large skillet, melt 1/4 cup butter over medium heat.
- Add 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and whisk constantly until a smooth roux forms (about 2-3 minutes).
- Gradually whisk in the reserved 1 cup giblet broth until smooth.
- Continue whisking constantly until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency (about 5-7 minutes).
- Stir in the chopped giblets, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon thyme.
- Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow flavors to meld.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve hot with your favorite roasted turkey and sides.
