Yield: 2.25 cups
turkey wings, including trimmings from the turkey breast
ribs celery, roughly chopped
onion, cut into chunks
cloves garlic, smashed
Arrowroot or cornstarch mixed with water for thickening
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Roast turkey wings and trimmings, celery, onion and garlic in a large saute or roasting pan for 2 ½ hours. Remove from the oven and place on top of the stove.
Add the chicken broth and simmer gently over burner for 1 hour allowing stock to reduce. Strain.
The next day, skim off the grease, and add dropping from the turkey you've roasted for Thanksgiving. Thicken with arrowroot or cornstarch dissolved in water.
This can be made a couple days in advance. Others have said it can also be frozen, although I never have. I have also doubled the recipe.
