Quick White Wine Gravy Food

WHITE WINE GRAVY

Steps:

• While the turkey rests on the cutting board, make the gravy: Use a fine-mesh strainer to strain the pan drippings into a medium bowl, leaving behind any browned bits, or "fond," stuck to the pan. Press down on the solids to get as much liquid as possible into the bowl; discard the solids. Pour the liquid into a measuring cup or a fat separator. After all the fat rises to the top, ladle the fat into a bowl and reserve. You should be left with about 1 cup of jus. Place the roasting pan across two burners over medium-low heat. Add the shallots and 2 tablespoons of the reserved turkey fat; sauté until the shallots are soft, 2 minutes.
• Add the wine and stir, scraping up the fond from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a simmer; continue scraping and simmering until the mixture has reduced to about a cup, 3-5 minutes. Once the wine mixture has reduced to 1 cup, add the reserved jus and enough turkey or chicken stock to bring the total amount of liquid to 4 cups; stir to combine. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh strainer set over a medium bowl; discard solids. Wipe out any remaining solids in the pan.
• Make a roux: In the roasting pan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. When melted, sprinkle in the flour and whisk it into the butter until the flour is completely incorporated and no longer raw, 1-2 minutes. When the flour begins to bubble, ladle in a small amount of the jus mixture at a time, around ½ cup per addition, whisking continuously. When the mixture looks like a paste, turn the heat to medium, and continue adding more liquid, a ladle or two at a time, and whisking. Small additions of liquid and continuous whisking are the keys to smooth gravy. Repeat the process until all the liquid has been incorporated and the gravy is thick, smooth, and velvety. (Tip: If gravy has any lumps at the end, pour it through a fine-mesh strainer to remove them.) Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour into a gravy boat or bowl and serve immediately.

CONSISTENTLY GOOD GRAVY

Steps:

• To make your gravy When you come to make your gravy, your chicken will be covered and resting and you'll have your tray of chicken juices and vegetable trivet in front of you. Using a spoon, carefully remove 90 per cent of the hot fat from the tray by angling it away from yourself and scooping off the fatty layer that settles on top.
• Put the tray back on the hob over a high heat. Add the flour, stir it around and, holding the tray steady with a tea towel in one hand, use a potato masher to mash all the veg to a pulp - don't worry if it's lumpy. You can rip the wings off the chicken and break them up into the tray to add more flavour at this point.
• When everything is mixed and mashed up, add the alcohol to give a little fragrance before you add your stock (the alcohol will cook away). Keep it over the heat and let it boil for a few minutes. Pour the stock into the tray, or add 1 litre of hot water. Bring everything in the pan to the boil, scraping all the goodness from the bottom of the pan as you go. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes, or until you've achieved the gravy consistency you're looking for.
• To serve your gravy Get yourself a large jug, bowl or pan and put a coarse sieve over it. Pour your gravy through the sieve, using a ladle to really push all the goodness through. Discard any veg or meat left behind. At this point you've got a really cracking gravy, and you can either serve it straight away or put it back on the heat to simmer and thicken up.

ROAST TURKEY WITH WHITE WINE GRAVY

Steps:

• To brine turkey: Remove neck and giblets from turkey and set aside in the refrigerator for the giblet stock. Drain any liquid from the turkey cavity. Place the turkey on a rack set in a roasting pan. Dry the cavity and skin well with paper towels. Gently loosen skin, running fingers between it and the meat. Mix 1 tablespoon each chopped parsley, rosemary, thyme sage and salt and ground pepper in a small bowl. Rub half the mixture under the skin and the other half on the skin. Refrigerate the turkey, uncovered and breast-side up, for at least 24 hours and for up to 48 hours.
• Meanwhile, prepare stock: Place the reserved neck and giblets in a large saucepan, along with 1 onion, 2 carrots, 2 celery stalks, 2 garlic cloves and peppercorns. Add water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a low simmer and cook, uncovered, for 2 hours, skimming fat and foam as needed. Strain through a fine sieve into a measuring cup (discard solids). You should have 2 to 2 1/2 cups stock. Set aside in the refrigerator.
• When ready to roast the turkey, position rack in the lower third of oven; preheat to 475°F. Let the turkey stand at room temperature while the oven heats. Place lemon, the remaining 4 garlic cloves, parsley leaves, rosemary sprigs, thyme sprigs and sage leaves in the cavity. Fill the rest of the cavity with some of the remaining onions, carrots and celery. Place any remaining vegetables in the roasting pan. Rub oil over the turkey. Pour wine into the pan.
• Place the pan in the oven and reduce the temperature to 350°. Roast the turkey until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the breast and the innermost part of the thigh registers 165°F, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• Transfer the turkey (still on the rack to keep the skin toward the bottom from getting too soggy) to a cutting board. Let rest for at least 20 minutes.
• While the turkey rests, make gravy: Using a slotted spoon, remove the vegetables from the pan and discard. Pour the drippings into a fat separator or a large measuring cup. Set the pan over 2 burners on medium heat. If using flour as a thickener, add 2 tablespoons of the separated fat to the pan and sprinkle with 1/4 cup flour; whisk to combine. Slowly add the remaining 1/4 cup flour. While whisking, slowly add 2 cups stock and 2 cups defatted drippings and bring to a simmer. (You should have about 1/2 cup leftover drippings-reserve to adjust the consistency of the gravy before serving.) Cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. If using cornstarch as a thickener, whisk it with 1/3 cup stock in a small bowl. Add the remaining 1 2/3 cups stock and 2 cups defatted drippings to the pan and bring to a simmer. While whisking, slowly add the cornstarch mixture and whisk until thickened.
• Pour the gravy into a serving bowl or gravy boat and stir in finely chopped herbs. Carve the turkey and serve with the gravy.
