RE: Thanksgiving Delight - Keep 'em coming...

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I had went to make enquiry in a frozen meat store close to my apartment.

They placed a kilo of chicken for #1250 whole half kilo of turkey was priced at #1300

The difference though.

I haven't checked, but it seems like turkey has more enriching nutrients than chicken. I would have to look that up and be sure. Heheh

No canned stuff for shadows. I'm not surprised. Hehe

While both are poultry the tastes are different as are to some extent the cooking methods. Turkey can be a challenge to roast fully without drying out the meat, thus the need to baste it regularly during the cooking process. Some like to brine the meat which gives it opportunity to absorb moisture (usually water) that helps the meat stay moist during the cooking.

I enjoy deep fried turkey which is usually always nice and moist. I had thought the meat would be greasy after exposing it to that much oil but it comes out really nice. The downside is that the oil does get into the carcass thus trying to use the bones for broth doesn't go well. Did I mention I liked turkey soupl :)

Hahah... Turkey soup goes to you.

You know alot about turkeys. I'm beginning to think that it may be one of those big birds in your freezer 🤣. Wild guess.

What I often do with meats is to steam it with some spices in addition to some slice of onions. When it's well steamed, I add it to my stew sauce.

I'd like fried ones, but I haven't tried frying any meat. I mostly get to eat fried ones when I'm at our family house. And the ladies take charge of that. Hehe

I don't have a turkey in my freezer. Currently I don't have an oven large enough to cook one in. If I did, there would be one but a small one like about 10-12lbs.

The deep frying process can be dangerous, so it has to be done with care. Steamed spiced meat sounds intriguing especially cuts that need slow cooking that would make them very tender and tasty.
