For a richer flavor, use homemade turkey stock in place of water.
If you don't have giblets, substitute with finely chopped mushrooms sautéed in butter with a pinch of thyme.
To avoid lumps, ensure the flour and gravy mix are fully incorporated before adding the liquid.
Adjust the amount of pan drippings to control the richness of the gravy.
A splash of dry sherry or Madeira wine added during the last minute of simmering can enhance the flavor.
