Turkey Gravy
Turkey gravy is a savory sauce traditionally made from roasted turkey drippings, broth, and a starch thickener like flour or cornstarch. Primarily associated with holiday meals in North American cuisine, it adds rich umami flavor to roasted meats and side dishes. Homemade versions derive depth from natural meat juices (often containing moderate fat), while commercial varieties typically have higher sodium levels and preservatives. Gluten content varies depending on whether flour or alternative thickeners are used.
