05 Step

Recipe View 0 mins You should have approximately 3 cups of stock. If you have more, return the stock to the pot and simmer over medium heat until reduced to the desired amount. If you have less, add water to reach 3 cups. (Variable)

For a deeper flavor, roast the turkey neck and giblets (excluding the liver) in a 375°F oven for 30 minutes before adding them to the stockpot.
Adding the liver later prevents it from becoming bitter and overpowering the stock.
The strained solids can be discarded, but the cooked turkey neck and giblets are excellent additions to your Thanksgiving gravy. Finely chop them and add them to the gravy base.
For a richer color, you can lightly caramelize the onion and carrots in the pot before adding the water.

    The tangerine zest adds such a unique and delicious twist. I'll never make turkey stock without it again!
