Place the carcass in a large soup pot. If necessary, break the turkey carcass apart at the joints. Add turkey neck if it's available and hasn't been used for another purpose (like stock for the gravy).
Gather fresh parsley (4 sprigs), thyme (2-4 sprigs), and sage (2-3 sprigs) into a little bouquet and tie and knot with butcher's twine.
Add fresh herbs, onions (1 large), carrots (2-3 medium), celery (2 ribs + tops), bay leaf (1), peppercorns (10), and coarse Kosher salt (1 generous pinch). Cover with water at least 1 inch above the carcass.
Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, or 4 hours. Skim as foam forms on the surface. Monitor and make sure not too much liquid is evaporating. Add more water if necessary.
Remove and discard the bones and vegetables and strain stock. Vegetables have given all the flavor and aren't worth saving.
