Heston Blumenthal - how to roast a turkey
He recommends taking the wings and legs off so the bird roasts more evenly and using them to make delicious gravy and yummy sausages. Naturally Heston’s recipe for roasting a turkey could be mistaken for instructions on how to launch a rocket to the moon but he does give some great tips that could help even a rank amateur... Heston Blumenthal recommends starting your turkey on Christmas Eve so you can pop your (defrosted) bird in a pan full of brine (heavily salted water) for six hours then leave it in the fridge to dry overnight. This brings out the flavour and gives the bird a brilliant texture apparently. Complicated as it might sound, you know it’ll be the best turkey you’ve ever tasted!
