GLUTEN-FREE ROASTED GARLIC AND HERB GRAVY
Every Thanksgiving I make this gravy for my family. I keep it gluten-free for my mom by using cornstarch and by adding layers of flavor with fresh herbs and roasted garlic so even if your bird doesn't render a lot of drippings you still have a delicious gravy.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Peel most of the papery skin away from the garlic head. Place on a cutting board and cut off the top 1 inch. Discard the top. Place the garlic head on a small sheet of foil. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and lightly sprinkle with salt. Tightly wrap and place on a small sheet tray in case it leaks. Roast until golden brown and soft, 55 to 65 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
- Meanwhile in a medium saucepot, combine the chicken stock, thyme, oregano, sage, rosemary and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for 30 minutes.
- Add the reserved drippings to the pot. Squeeze in the roasted garlic from the head. Stir and then remove from heat. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl, pushing the garlic through, then pour the strained stock back into a clean pot. Add in some freshly cracked black pepper and more salt, if needed.
- To make the slurry, combine 1/2 cup of the cornstarch with 1/2 cup cold water in a small bowl. Whisk together.
- Bring the stock back up to a simmer over medium. Slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry and then bring to a boil to thicken. If the gravy looks too loose, make another slurry with the remaining cornstarch and slowly whisk in a little bit at a time until you feel the gravy thicken. Taste for seasoning. Keep warm until needed.

Steps:
- In a small oven-safe dish, place the garlic and pour on about 1 cm. of water. Put it in the oven or a toaster oven at 350 until the outside is brown and the innermost cloves are soft,25-30 minute Check after 20 minutes to see if you need to add a little more water- it dries up easily!
- Allow the roasted garlic to cool. Ten slice off the top and squeeze the soft cloves from the skin into a small bowl. Mash the garlic with a fork and set aside.
- Toast the flour in a medium-sized pot, over medium heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant but NOT browned. Vigorously stir in the oil, then the garlic, with a wire whisk and cook for a couple of minutes on low heat, stirring often.
- Stir or whisk in the liquid, soy sauce and herbs, stirring till fairly smooth (There'll probably still be chunks of garlic!) Simmer the gravy for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve hot.

Tips for Making Gluten-Free Roasted Garlic and Herb Gravy:
- Choose a flavorful gluten-free bread or baguette for the best results. Stale bread works best, as it will absorb the gravy more easily.
- Toast the bread cubes until they are golden brown and crispy. This will add a delicious flavor and texture to the gravy.
- Roast the garlic until it is soft and caramelized. This will add a rich, savory flavor to the gravy.
- Use a combination of fresh herbs for the gravy, such as rosemary, thyme, and sage. This will give the gravy a complex and aromatic flavor.
- Bring the gravy to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low. This will allow the flavors to meld together and thicken the gravy.
- Season the gravy to taste with salt and pepper. You may also want to add a touch of Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce for extra flavor.
- Strain the gravy before serving to remove any solids. This will give the gravy a smooth and velvety texture.
