Turkey Giblet Gravy

Ingredients

• 1 package of giblets and neck from turkey, excluding liver
• 4 cups water
• 1 cup turkey drippings
• 6 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1/2 cup cold water
• 1 hard-cooked egg, chopped
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Place turkey giblets and neck into a saucepan with 4 cups water and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low. Simmer until broth is reduced to 3 cups, about 1 hour. Strain broth and reserve 1/2 cup of giblets; chop.

Combine giblet broth and turkey drippings in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk cornstarch in 1/2 cup cold water in a bowl until smooth. Whisk cornstarch into stock and drippings. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and stir chopped giblets and hard-cooked egg into the gravy. Season with salt and black pepper. Simmer until gravy is thickened, about 5 minutes.
