    Recipe Introduction



    posted by Kewpie's Mom on Mimi's

    List of Ingredients




    4 turkey wings (about 3 lbs.) or 3 turkey legs
    2 medium onions -- peeled and quartered
    1 cup water
    8 cups chicken broth (canned or homeade)
    3/4 cup chopped carrot
    1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
    3/4 cup all-purpose flour
    2 tablespoons butter or margarine
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper



    Recipe



    Heat oven to 400 degrees. Have a large roasting pan ready. Arrange wings in single layer in pan.
    Scatter onions over top. Roast 1 1/4 hours or until wings are browned.

    Put wings and onions into 5-6 quart pot. Add water to pan and stir to scrape up any brown bits on
    bottom. Add to the pot. Add 6 cups broth (refrigerate remaining 2 cups), the carrot, and thyme. Bring to
    a boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered for 1 1/2 hours. Remove wings to a cutting board. When
    cool pull off skin and meat. Discard skin and save meat for another use.

    Strain broth into 3 quart saucepan, pressing vegetables to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard
    veggies and skim fat off broth. Whisk flour into remaining 2 cups of broth until smooth. Bring broth in
    saucepan to a boil, slowly whisk in flour mixture, boil 3-4 minutes to thicken and remove floury taste. Stir
    in butter and pepper. Refrigerate up to one week or freeze up to three months.


    Yield: "8 cups"
