PROCEDURE

➀ To make the brine: In a large stockpot, bring the water, cloves, ginger, black peppercorn, bay leaves and salt to a boil. Lower to a simmer and stir in the honey and maple syrup until well blended. Turn off heat and allow to cool to room temperature.

➁ To brine the turkey: Rinse the turkey inside and out with cold tap water.

Reserve the neck and specialty meats for pan gravy. Set the turkey in the brine, making sure that the turkey is fully immersed in the brine. Place a weight on top of the turkey to make sure it is always covered with brine. Marinate for at least 4 hours to overnight, depending on the weight of the turkey, in the refrigerator.

➂ To roast the turkey: Preheat oven to 325 °F. In a shallow roasting pan, place the carrots, celery and onions.

Remove turkey from brine.

➃ Mix together the butter, garlic, and chopped sage to make a compound butter. Using your hands, loosen to the skin from the breast by gently inserting your fingers between the skin and the flesh. Rub the compound butter underneath the skin. Insert the apples, onions, and sage into the cavity of the turkey.

➄ Place the turkey over the vegetables, breast-side up, in the roasting pan.

Tuck the wings back and under the turkey. Using kitchen twine, tie the legs together. This will make a compact shape and will create a great presentation. Drizzle the turkey with olive oil and rub it into the skin.

Roast the turkey to at least 165 °F in the breast, about 2 ½ hours. If the skin gets too dark during roasting, tent with foil. Transfer turkey to a platter and allow to cool.

➅ To make the gravy: Tilt the pan and skim as much fat as possible off the juice with a spoon. Set the pan on 2 burners set on medium heat.

Deglaze roasting pan with Chateau Bern Rosé. Scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen any brown bits.

Reduce until only a quarter remains.

Add the broth, thyme and parsley.

Bring to a boil and strain into a saucepan. Bring back to a boil, skim and lower to a simmer. Whisk in the beurre manie until well incorporated and continue to cook until gravy has thickened. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
