 From:  Easy Make-Ahead Turkey Gravy Recipe - Food.com

Yields: 8 servings

6 tablespoons butter

6 tablespoons flour

4 cups chicken broth or 4 cups turkey broth

salt and pepper

pan drippings from turkey

In a medium saucepan, melt butter and whisk in flour.

Cook over medium-high heat until flour is incorporated and white bubbles begin to form on the top of the roux.

Cook the roux for 2-3 minute after the white bubbles have formed, whisking constantly.

Gradually add the broth, whisking constantly until the gravy is thickened and comes to a boil.

Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper.

At this point, you can cool, cover and refrigerate the gravy base for as long as 4 days. Reheat in a medium-sized pan. When turkey is done, skim off fat and pour drippings into gravy base and bring it to serving temperature.
