Servings
Makes about 3 cups
Difficulty
Easy

Ingredients

Drippings from the roasted turkey or chicken
2 Tablespoons cognac
1/2 cup dry vermouth
2-1/2 cups Turkey broth or gf Chicken Stock
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 Tablespoons gf flour
2 Tablespoons cold unsalted butter (optional)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Set the roasting pan with the turkey drippings and vegetables over two burners set on medium high heat. Add the Cognac, vermouth, and 1/2 cup of turkey broth to the roasting pan. Cook, stirring up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan, until the liquid comes to a simmer. Strain the contents of the roasting pan through a sieve into a medium saucepan. Add the remaining 2 cups of turkey broth along with the thyme; bring to a boil over medium high heat; reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, place the cream and gf flour in a small bowl and whisk until blended. Gradually whisk the cream mixture into the broth mixture. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, whisking constantly. Reduce the heat and simmer, whisking constantly, until the gravy is thickened. Adjust seasonings to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. For an extra rich gravy, just before serving whisk in 2 tablespoons of cold unsalted butter (optional). Keep gravy hot until ready to serve.
