    The stock can be made at anytime & kept frozen. In a large saucepan, add the carrot, celery & onion, cover with the broth, water & wine. Add the turkey giblets & neck. bring to a boil & simmer gently for two b hours, skimming off any impurities that rise. The liquid should be reduced to half when done. Strain & chill to remove any fat. reheat the stock until simmering. In another sauce pan, heat the turkey drippings or butter until foaming then whisk in the brown flour to make a smooth paste. Make sure to break up any clumps. Add 2 cups of the hot stock to this flour roux whisking constantly to make a smooth & thick gravy. Add 2 more cups stock & whisk. Add the remaining stock & whisk thoroughly. Keep at a simmer: season with salt & pepper.

    Note: * Brown the dry flour in oven stirring constantly to let it colour.
