Hi Lora,
Great idea for gravy, I often shake flour with water in a jar, sometimes it is
lumpy. I'll try it your way. I am making turkey burgers today, a change from
just turkey, nice to hear some cooks are cooking, Try the Amish pie crust,
nelts in your mouth from Northstar, Don

Hi Don,
That sounds interesting and different. I have always had a nightmare making
gravy. My daughter Debbie is also a good cook so I asked her what I should do.
She said take equal parts of butter and flour. Melt the butter and then
whisk in the flour. She said I didn't have to do it on high because it moves
very fast, so she said to do it on medium heat, it might be easier and it was.
She also said to chill my turkey pan drippings so I could skim off any yucky
fat if there was any. Then she said have my juice or broth ready there because
as soon as the roux was ready to add it right away, mix it, then turn the heat
down. I added some chicken bouillon and a little water to my pan drippings and
it worked quite well, non of those yucky flour lumps, no corn starch and cold
water slurry thing.
I am definitely going to try it again.
We had it with stuffing and today i am going to put some turkey on bread and
put the rest of the gravy.
Lora

I roasted a 15 pound turkey, cavity filled with vegetables ((from Sugar)
candied sweet potatoes, mashed buttered turnips stuffing (stove-top) and
cranberry sauce. Finished with a mince pie with flaky crust (Amish, Northstar)
Anyone have any cooking experiences to share? Don
