Never done a turkey gumbo but now I really want to do one.


Details on the stock?

Well the frozen stock was from the carcasses of one fried and one baked turkey, along with 2 onions, 3 or 4 garlic cloves, about as many Bay leaves, some peppercorns, a rib of celery. I think that's it. I simmered it for at least 6 hours and then strained it.

After I deboned the pictured turkey legs I dropped the bones in about 6 quarts of water and reduced by half over 2 hours or so. Then I removed the bones and added the above stock. The first stock didn't really need anything added to it but I didn't wanna waste good roasted bones.

Wink, if you're going to use the stock for gumbo, don't put anything in it that you wouldn't use in the gumbo. Much of the time, I just make the stock with the bones and nothing else, since I'm going to be seasoning later on. The bones are the stars of the stock. Roasted bones/carcasses are great.
