    List of Ingredients




    4 turkey wings (about 3 lb)
    2 medium onions, peeled and quartered
    1 cup water
    8 cups chicken broth
    3/4 cup chopped carrot
    1/2 tsp dried thyme
    3/4 cup all-purpose flour
    2 Tbsp stick butter or margarine
    1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper

    Recipe



    1. Heat oven to 400°F. Have ready a large roasting pan.

    2. Arrange wings in a single layer in pan; scatter onions over top.
    Roast 1 1/4 hours until wings are browned.

    3. Put wings and onions in a 5- to 6-qt pot. Add water to roasting pan
    and stir to scrape up any brown bits on bottom. Add to pot. Add 6 cups
    broth (refrigerate remaining 2 cups), the carrot and thyme. Bring to a
    boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 1 1/2 hours.

    4. Remove wings to cutting board. When cool, pull off skin and meat.
    Discard skin; save meat for another use.

    5. Strain broth into a 3-qt saucepan, pressing vegetables to extract as
    much liquid as possible. Discard vegetables; skim fat off broth and
    discard (if time permits, refrigerate broth overnight to make
    fat-skimming easier).

    6. Whisk flour into remaining 2 cups broth until blended and smooth.

    7. Bring broth in pot to a gentle boil. Whisk in broth-flour mixture
    and

    boil 3 to 4 minutes to thicken gravy and remove floury taste. Stir in
    butter and pepper. Serve, or pour into containers and refrigerate up to
    1 week or freeze up to 6 months
