Recipe




1. Boil the potatoes in salted water until they're falling apart. Quartering them makes this process faster, as does cooking the potatoes in a pressure cooker.

2. Pour off most of the water into a container. (Reuse this water when making bread. The starch in this water helps make the most terrific bread.)

3. With a potato masher or a fork, mash the potatoes into a smooth consistency. (Yes, I skipped the peeling stage. I keep the peels in mine- it's healthier that way and makes sure there is no food waste.)

4. Saute onions in chicken fat until golden. Add to the mashed potatoes.

5. Mix well. Salt, and add pepper. If dry, add a drop of the potato water.

6. Serve with turkey neck gravy.


1. Cover turkey necks in lots of water and boil. You want to cook this for a while so they really soften up. A pressure cooker will eliminate cooking time, but otherwise it should simmer on a low heat for a good 2 hours or more.

2. When the turkey necks are soft, sauté a large onion in chicken fat until it's a golden brown. Once the onions are cooked, add mushrooms and sauté.

3. Set aside a cup of the water in which the turkey necks were cooked. Pour a large amount of the rest (or more, depending on how much you're making) into the pan with the sautéed onions.

4. Mix starch with the reserved water, more or less depending on your preference. The thicker you want the gravy, the more starch should be mixed in. I usually put in half a cup or more of starch. Add the starch to the pan and bring to a boil.

5. Once the gravy boils, note the texture. If it is not thick enough, take a bit more turkey broth and mix it with more starch and repeat the process.

6. Add soy sauce, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.

7. Add the turkey necks to the gravy and serve over mashed potatoes.
