Posted on 11/23/2015 11:20:20 AM PST by Red Badger

Red Badger's Great Giblet Gravy

1 pkg giblets from the turkey (Liver, Neck, Gizzard and Heart) 1 16oz pkg chicken livers 1 16oz pkg chicken gizzards

1 teaspoon sea salt 1 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper 2 cubes chicken bouillon 2 stalks celery, diced 2 medium yellow onions, diced

1 quart hot water (to begin) 2 cans chicken broth OR 1 can and 1 1/2 cups turkey drippings

6 hard-boiled eggs, diced 2 tablespoons cornstarch 1/2 cup COLD milk

Directions:

In a large pot, 4qt or similar, boil ALL the giblets, salt, pepper, bouillon, celery, onion and water for 1 hour. Add water as necessary to keep a rapid boil.

Remove giblets and reserve the liquid.

Chop the livers, gizzards heart and neck meat (removed from bones) and return to pot liquid.

Add chicken broth, or if you have a turkey, use drippings (about 1 1/2 cups and 1 can of chicken broth).

Chop eggs and add to broth. Mix cornstarch and cold milk together and slowly add to broth. Stir well until thickened.

Reduce heat to low.

Is this the stuffing recipe or the gravy recipe? Sounds thick and chunky, but delicious.

Gravy, to pour over the stuffing on your plate and the mashed potatoes, and to make the green bean casserole actually palatable.................

The eggs add a subtle flavor of their own, and are a nice colorful addition to the plate........................

Thanks! May give it a try. Always breaks my heart to throw the giblets away in favor of powdered gravy. If I can procure the ingredients, I'll consider adding it along with my annual adherence to Alton Brown's "Turkey Triangle" (which comes out perfect every year BTW).

My mother’s brother was married to a Latino woman, she made spaghetti sauce with egg. I had never had it before or since but it was outstanding! I wish I knew how (or why) she added eggs.

Giblet gravy is delicious. You don’t make a roux with the drippings?

Interesting. I’ve never heard of that, but I do love eggs.

I LIKE greenbean casserole. Of course, my mom makes it with bacon, onion and fresh garlic.

Yes, you can make a great roux for the people in your family that recoil from the ‘giblets’ once they find out what they are...............
