What else can I make with my turkey stock?

I'm a bit tired of gumbo. Ideas on other uses? If it has to be gumbo, what can I do to make it different besides adding in andouille? Different seasoning, choice of meat, anything.

Really you can make any soup that would use chicken stock. Just replace with turkey stock.
For turkey gumbo, I actually prefer Conecuh hickory smoked sausage over andouille. Any really smokey sausage will work if you don't want/can't find Conecuh.
Just spitballing here:
- Turkey pot pie
- Turkey demi-glace
- Risotto
- Turkey jambalaya

Beans. We made two lbs. of lima beans using stock instead of some of the water and they came out great.

I made a soup that was amazing.
Make a stock
Saute some chopped onions and garlic in olive oil.
Start adding warm stock and bring to a boil
Add sliced potatoes and carrots and simmer for 10 min
Add turkey and just enough heavy cream to change the color.
Simmer 10 more minutes and then eat.

As stated and to add to the list, use stock as a replacement for water in recipes for noodles, rice, beans, potatoes, gravy...

I went to buy a baking hen this morning to make a pot of chicken/sausage/okra gumbo for tomorrow and Rouses and Winn-Dixie had NO fresh fryers or baking hens on hand.
Guess a lot of folks had just household members to cook for and opted for smaller birds instead of a turkey.
But back to the subject at hand:
I made my stock already from the carcass of the fried turkey I cooked yesterday and it is now cooling to be used just as I would a chicken stock. In gumbos, soups, stews, pot pies, jambalayas, etc.
Hell, just a cup of the hot broth is a refreshing treat to have once in a while. I actually make an aspic since it will gel when cold, so the flavors are more intense than a plain broth type stock.

Turkey Broth and corn meal stirred constantly. Do it traditionally using ground flint corn, or simply use yellow corn meal.
It's kinda like grits but smoother and using broth instead of water so it's tastier.

Turkey Bog. It’s what I make with the leftovers every year.

Turkey and Dumplings are my favorite thing to make with the leftover Turkey carcass

I pretty much make everything that requires liquid with some kind of homemade stock now. I put it in my jambalaya, ettoufe, soup, beans, etc. Makes it taste so much better

I'm freezing half and making ramen with the other half.

What’s y’all’s recipe for your stock?
Posted on 11/28/20 at 6:58 am to upgrayedd
Fresh cayenne and rosemary from the garden.
Sage
Carrots
Black peppercorns
Crushed red pepper flakes
Also took the garlic, lemons abs onions from the carcass and threw them in there.
No real recipe, just keep adding to taste.

Keeping it simple allows for versatility later.

Turkey noodle soup
My favorite part of Thanksgiving food TBH. Nothing on Earth is better than a bowl of turkey noodle soup and a grilled cheese on a cold December day. NOTHING. Fresh sage and thyme are critical to this.
