  • 6 plan on 1 1/2 - 2 lbs of turkey per person.
  • 7 it's better to have two smaller turkeys, 14 - 16 lbs, than a larger turkey.
  • 8 use an electronic temperature probe with an alarm. (it's worth the investment to get a moist turkey!).
  • 9 get a plastic tub that will fit's in the ice-chest to brine the turkey inches.
  • 10 thawing instructions.
  • 11 leave turkey in original packaging to thaw it.
  • 12 if using the ice chest, place the frozen turkey into a tub in the ice chest.
  • 13 place ice around tub. (we use water frozen in half gallon milk jugs instead.).
  • 14 check ice chest morning and night to make sure cool enough. it should stay no higher than 32f degrees.
  • 15 if having trouble thawing the bottom of the turkey, add a few inches of water to the tub.
  • 16 brine that bird!
  • 17 the brine solution must be cold!
  • 18 remove turkey from packaging and remove the neck and the giblets. the neck will be in the large cavity and the giblets will be under the skin at the small cavity.
  • 19 wash the turkey gently, so the skin is not torn. remove any remaining pin feathers.
  • 20 submerse the turkey in the brine solution, placing a heavy object over the turkey to keep it from floating. (i use a heavy casserole dish.).
  • 21 keep in brine for 24 hours.
  • 22 herb rub.
  • 23 another great way to keep the turkey moist. after removing the turkey from the brine, pat it dry.
  • 24 gently loosen the skin on the breast. it should come loose from the bottom end of the turkey to the top. spread the herb butter under the skin.
  • 25 do the same on the back of the turkey.
  • 26 fill the turkey.
  • 27 fill with sprigs of fresh rosemary and thyme, plus quartered apples and onions.
  • 28 set the turkey on a platform of carrots, onions and celery too, to give the broth more flavor.
  • 29 gently rub olive oil into skin of turkey.
  • 30 cook the turkey.
  • 31 preheat oven to 325 degrees and insert the probe. cover with aluminum foil loosely, or use a roasting bag with vent holes cut into it.
  • 32 cooking time will depend on size of turkey and whether a roasting bag is used. (in my convection oven with a roasting bag, 11 minutes per lb was too long. i'm going to try 10 minutes next year).
  • 33 wait 20 minutes after removing the turkey from the oven before slicing it. that allows the juices time to set so the turkey will stay moist.

Steamed Chorizo Dim Sims

Total Time: 20 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 (100 g) chorizo sausage
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, crushed
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 16 wonton wrappers

Recipe

  • 1 dice the chorizo with a knife or process briefly in a food processor. it doesn't have to be especially finely diced so a sharp knife will save some cleanup.
  • 2 mix chorizo, garlic, ginger, onion and soy sauce well in a small bowl.
  • 3 put around a teaspoon of mixture into the middle of each wonton. exact amount of mixture will depend a bit on the size of the wrappers.
  • 4 brush around the edge of each wonton wrapper as making with a little water and wrap into packages. there is probably a proper way to do this but i find the easiest is to fold left and right inwards, top and bottom inwards so it ends up square and then gently squeeze in the palm of my hand to form a rounder shape.
  • 5 they stick very easily so place baking paper into a steamer and prepare the steamer as per usual until steaming well.
  • 6 steam for approximately 10 minutes. because of the chorizo you really only need to warm through and not cook as long as you would with raw meat.
  • 7 serve with sweet & sour sauce, sweet chilli, soy sauce or whatever else takes your fancy for dipping.
