Recipe View Strain the gravy through a fine-mesh sieve for an ultra-smooth texture (optional). Serve hot with your roasted turkey and enjoy!

For an even deeper flavor, roast turkey wings or drumsticks separately and use the resulting stock for the gravy.
If you don't have celery salt, you can substitute it with a pinch of celery seed.
For a vegetarian option, use vegetable stock instead of turkey stock and add a tablespoon of nutritional yeast for a savory, umami flavor.
To avoid lumps, make sure the slurry is completely smooth before adding it to the hot stock. If lumps do form, strain the gravy through a fine-mesh sieve.
Gravy can be made ahead of time and reheated gently before serving. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

    I used cornstarch instead of flour to make it gluten-free, and it worked great! No one could even tell the difference.

    This gravy was a total hit at Thanksgiving! Everyone raved about how flavorful and smooth it was. The sherry really added a special touch!

    I added a little bit of sage and thyme to the poultry seasoning, and it gave the gravy an extra layer of flavor.
