Q&A with Cristina

Q: I have tried numerous times to make gravy from scratch without success; it is either too liquidy or tastes like flour. Last year, Christmas dinner was celebrated at my house, and since I did not want to screw up the turkey gravy, I got one of my guests to do it (a little embarrassing). I would just love to be able to make gravy without being so scared of the outcome. I want to be confident next year, therefore, if I get the information from a pro and practice, my gravy phobia will be a thing of the past.

Hi, Aline.

I have just the thing: my video on how to make gravy .

Try it—I think you will like it. Definitely give it a go now since the holidays are almost a year away. It will give you plenty of time to see if you like it.

Also try making the turkey with my marinade . You can use the same marinade for chicken too! It makes really great pan juices to make the gravy. Please let me know how it turns out!

Good luck,
Cristina
