Ingredients

  • Drippings from roasted turkey
  • 1 1/2 cups liquid (turkey juices, canned broth or water)
  • 3 cups chopped fresh mushrooms, such as regular or shiitake
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage or 1/4 teaspoon rubbed sage
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Steps

  • 1
    After removing turkey from roasting pan, pour drippings (turkey juices and fat) into bowl or glass measuring cup, leaving brown bits in pan. Let drippings stand about 5 minutes to allow fat to rise. Skim 6 tablespoons fat from top of drippings, and return to pan; discard any remaining fat. Add enough broth or water to remaining drippings to measure 1 1/2 cups; reserve.
  • 2
    Cook and stir mushrooms in turkey fat over medium heat, stirring constantly and scraping up brown bits, 2 to 3 minutes or until liquid has been released from mushrooms. Stir in vinegar; cook and stir 3 to 4 minutes longer or until vinegar is syrupy and clings to mushrooms. Stir in flour; remove from heat.
  • 3
    Gradually stir in reserved drippings, cream, sage, salt and pepper. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil 2 to 3 minutes or until gravy thickens.

  • Serve leftover gravy over wide egg noodles for a stroganoff-type side dish.
  • Add a splash of truffle oil just before serving to further enhance the earthy, rich flavors of this gravy.
