Equipment

  • Fine mesh strainer

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon Dried summer savory
  • 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
  • ½ teaspoon Onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • Turkey Drippings
  • 1 ½ cups Chicken or turkey stock (You won't use all of this, actual amount depends on how much drippings you're working with)
  • ¼ cup Unsalted butter optional (see post)

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix savory, xanthan gum, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and salt. Make sure it’s well combined, with everything well distributed. Set aside.
  • Strain your turkey drippings into a large measuring cup, allow to sit for 10 minutes or so, to allow the fat to separate.
  • Pour or skim off most of the fat that rises to the top, either discarding it (if using butter), or measuring out ¼ cup of it (if not using butter).
  • Once the fat is skimmed off, top up remaining drippings with stock to make 2 cups of liquid.
  • In a medium pot, combine seasoning mixture, liquid, and butter (or measured dripping fat), whisking well to combine.
  • Bring to a boil over medium high heat, then turn heat to low.
  • Simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, season with additional salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Serve hot!
