Steps:
- Make turkey:
- Mix first 5 ingredients in small bowl. Pat turkey dry with paper towels and place on rack set in large roasting pan. If not stuffing turkey, place herb sprigs in main cavity. If stuffing turkey, spoon stuffing into main cavity. Tie legs together loosely to hold shape of turkey. Brush turkey with oil. Rub herb mix all over turkey. Place turkey neck and giblets in roasting pan. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead if turkey is not stuffed. Cover and refrigerate. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour before roasting.)
- Position rack in lowest third of oven and preheat to 425°F. Drizzle melted butter all over turkey. Pour 2 cups broth into pan. Roast turkey 45 minutes. Remove turkey from oven and cover breast with foil. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Return turkey to oven; roast unstuffed turkey 1 hour (roast stuffed turkey 1 hour 30 minutes). Remove foil from turkey; pour remaining 2 cups broth into pan. Continue roasting turkey until meat thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 180°F. or until juices run clear when thickest part of thigh is pierced with skewer, basting occasionally with pan juices, about 1 hour 40 minutes longer. Transfer turkey to platter; tent with foil. Let stand 30 minutes. Reserve liquid in pan for gravy.
- Meanwhile, prepare gravy:
- Mix flour and Sherry in small bowl until smooth paste forms. Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and rosemary and sauté until mushrooms begin to soften, about 3 minutes. (Can be made 3 hours ahead. Cover flour paste tightly. Let paste and mushrooms stand at room temperature.)
- Discard turkey neck and giblets from pan juices in roasting pan. Transfer pan juices to large glass measuring cup. Spoon off fat. Add enough chicken broth to measure 5 cups; add to saucepan with mushrooms. Add flour paste and whisk until smooth. Bring mixture to boil, stirring frequently. Boil until thickened to light gravy, about 10 minutes. Mix in cream, thyme and tarragon. Season with salt and pepper. Serve turkey with gravy.

BAKED CHICKEN WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOM GRAVY
I just love mushrooms. This is another recipe I adapted from one published in a women's magazine. They used button mushrooms, less seasoning, and canned gravy. I like this better. :)

Steps:
- 1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Wash the chicken and then pat it dry with paper towels and put it into a baking dish. Sprinkle it with the salt, white pepper, garlic, and paprika. Then rub that into the chicken thoroughly. Next, add a little bit of water to the bottom of the baking dish. Put it in the oven and bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes to an hour, or until its almost done.
- 2. While chicken is in oven saute mushrooms and onions in 2 T olive oil. Remove chicken from oven and add the chicken stock to the dish. Pour onions and shiitake mushrooms into pan. Add flour to all of that and stir it to get rid of as many lumps as possible. Then bake it all in the oven again until the sauce thickens up to whatever degree you like and chicken is completely cooked. That usually takes around 10 to 15 minutes. Garnish with a bit of chopped green onion for color if you like.
SHIITAKE MUSHROOM GRAVY
This is a fantastic alternative to traditional giblet gravy-- the mushroom pieces take the place of giblets or hard-boiled egg pieces (for the others out there who are squeamish about the old-fashioned version) and the flavor adds a wonderful savory complement to any holiday dish. I've been making this for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners for years now, and we always drown turkey, potatoes, stuffing, biscuits--you name it--in this gravy. It's slightly creamy, fragrant, and has a beautiful flavor that adds something lovely without overpowering. It heats up nicely with leftovers, as well! (I adapted it slightly from a cookbook so many years ago now that I can't remember where it came from.)

SHIITAKE MUSHROOM GRAVY
Steps:
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over moderately high heat. Stir in the mushrooms, shallots, garlic, salt and pepper and sauté for 5 minutes or until tender. Add the stock, wine, tomato paste, thyme and bay leaf; bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes. In a small bowl, blend the sour cream and cornstarch and stir into the sauce. Simmer 5 minutes more, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened. Discard the bay leaf.
Tips:
- Use dried shiitake mushrooms for a more intense flavor. Rehydrate them in hot water for 20 minutes before using.
- Sauté the mushrooms in butter until they are browned. This will help to develop their flavor.
- Add a splash of white wine or sherry to the gravy. This will help to deglaze the pan and add a bit of acidity.
- Use a good quality beef or chicken broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the gravy.
- Season the gravy to taste with salt and pepper. You may also want to add a bit of thyme or rosemary.
- Serve the gravy immediately over your favorite dishes.
