Ingredients:

1/4   pound         unsalted butter - (1 stick)
1 1/2 cups          chopped yellow onion -
1/4   cup           flour
1     teaspoon      kosher salt
1/2   teaspoon      freshly-ground black pepper
                    Defatted turkey drippings
                    chicken stock to make 2 cups
1     tablespoon    Cognac or brandy
1     tablespoon    white wine
1     tablespoon    heavy cream

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

In a large (10- to 12-inch) saute pan, cook the butter and onions over medium-low heat for 12 to 15 minutes, until the onions are lightly browned. Don't rush this step; it makes all the difference when the onions are well-cooked.
Sprinkle the flour into the pan, whisk in, then add the salt and pepper. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the hot chicken stock mixture and Cognac, and cook uncovered for 4 to 5 minutes until thickened. Add the wine and cream, if desired. Season, to taste, and serve.
