Recipe
While turkey cooks (or the day before), cover the giblets, wing tips and neck bones with water in a large pot. Add onion, celery, carrot, parsley, bay leaf, Kitchen Bouquet, bouillon cube and simmer for at least 2 hours. Strain broth and reserve for gravy. Pick meat from neck and wing tips; finely chop all giblets and meat. Pour turkey stock into bowl, let stand a few minutes or chill in refrigerator until fat rises to the top. Skim off the fat. Make a roux using equal parts by weight of fat and flour and cook over medium heat for at least 5 minutes, stirring regularly. Bring the stock to a boil and slowly add the roux until the sauce is just thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and simmer for about 10 minutes or so. Adjust seasoning and serve.
