Steps
Use a spoon or spatula to scrape the bottom of the turkey roasting pan or deglaze the pan with 2 cups of turkey stock to bring up any stuck on bits. Strain large solids and reserve liquid in a measuring cup. If you don't have enough drippings, use water or stock/broth to bring liquid amount to 2 cups.
Using a saute pan, melt butter over medium heat.
Add flour to the pan and stir with a wooden spoon until flour is incorporated. Cook the roux mixture for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until it starts to smell toasty.
Pour the reserved turkey stock into the roux, slowly whisking, so no lumps remain. Continue to heat until thickened, whisking frequently. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
