Cream Turkey Gravy
This is taken from the Brined Maple Turkey recipe included in our family Thanksgiving menu. It needs its own page, since it is possible for a harried cook to forget something even so essential as the gravy. The original recipe is from Cooking Light November 2002.

Ingredients
- giblets
- 1 can(s) chicken broth 14 1/2 oz
- 1 cup(s) milk
- 2 tablespoon(s) cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) ground black pepper
- turkey drippings
Preparation
- To prepare gravy, while turkey bakes, combine reserved giblet and neck and the broth in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 45 minutes. Strain mixture through a colander into a bowl, discarding solids.
- Place a zip-top plastic bag inside a 2-cup glass measure. Pour pan drippings into bag; let stand 10 minutes (fat will rise to the top).
- Seal bag; carefully snip off 1 bottom corner of bag. Drain drippings into broiler pan, stopping before fat layer reaches opening; discard fat. Add broth mixture. Place broiler pan on stovetop over medium heat, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Combine milk and cornstarch in a small bowl, stirring well with a whisk; add to pan. Bring to a boil; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Strain gravy through a sieve into a bowl. Discard solids. Stir in salt and pepper.
