If you are cooking Thanksgiving dinner, use this product and your guests will think your gravy is the best they ever had. I cook my turkey on a trellis of celery, carrots and onions. I add chicken broth to the bottom of the pan so the veggies don't dry up and burn.
After the turkey is done, I strain the pan drippings, then I add Williams-Sonoma's gravy base to the strained drippings. I add some flour that has been mixed with cold water. Make sure you combine the flour and water thoroughly, or you will have lumps. Don't add too much of the flour-water mix or the gravy will be too thick.
This gravy is BEST you will ever taste. I promise. (I'm only giving my secret away because there's a limit to how many people I can have over for Thanksgiving.)
(PS...ignore the recipe on the jar. Not good.)
