Turkey

101

Turkey, the centerpiece on most Thanksgiving dinner tables, requires a little planning ahead and know-how. Here are a handful of practical turkey tips to help you sit down to your best holiday meal yet.

Plan-ahead Thawing Allow 24 hours of thawing for every four to five pounds. Always remember to thaw the turkey in the refrigerator, never at room temperature. You can keep a fully thawed turkey in the refrigerator for up to two days.

Turkey Timetable Start preparing your turkey about an hour before roasting. Allow about 15 to 18 minutes of roasting time per pound or 3 to 3¾ hours for a 12- to 14-pound turkey. Allow the turkey to stand at room temperature 20 minutes before carving – this makes the turkey both juicier and easier to carve.

Temperature is Key To check the doneness of the turkey, insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh, making sure the thermometer does not touch the bone. Look for juices to run clear from the thigh. The final temperature in the breast and thigh should reach 165°. Residual heat will continue to cook the turkey while it stands, so you may want to remove the turkey from the oven when it reaches 160°.

Whether you’re craving a classic pumpkin, luscious pecan or indulgent salted caramel apple pie, we’ve got you covered with a treasure trove of pie recipes to make your season bright.

oned Pie Crust i h s a F ld Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: Bake as directed in pie recipe Servings: 1 crust 1 ½ cup flour 2/3 cup butter flavored Crisco® 1 tsp. salt 1 Tbsp. sugar 1/4 cup ice water 1. With electric mixer, beat butter flavored Crisco, flour, salt & sugar just until crumbly. 2. Add ice water as needed. 3. Form into ball and roll out. 4. Bake as directed per pie recipe.

Perfect Pumpkin Pie Prep: 25 minutes plus cooling and chilling Bake: 37 minutes • Serves: 8 package (14.1 ounces) refrigerated pie crusts 1 1 can (15 ounces) 100% pure pumpkin 1 cup packed light brown sugar 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour 1 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice 1/4 tsp. salt 2 large eggs 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk 1 Tbsp. mild (original) molasses Nonstick cooking spray Heavy whipping cream, whipped (optional) 1. Let pie crusts stand at room temperature as label directs to soften slightly. Adjust 2 oven racks to lowest and middle positions. Line rimmed baking pan with aluminum foil; place on lowest rack while oven preheats. Preheat oven to 450°. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray. 2. In large bowl, with mixer on medium speed, beat pumpkin, brown sugar, flour, pumpkin pie spice and salt 1 minute; add eggs, 1 at a time, scraping bowl occasionally with rubber spatula. Reduce speed to low; gradually add evaporated milk and molasses, beating just until combined.

3. Unroll 1 pie crust; place in 9- to 10-inch glass or ceramic pie plate. Unroll second pie crust onto cutting board; invert 8-inch plate or cake pan onto center of crust. With small knife, cut around edge of plate. Place dough ring over edge of crust, then fold over and press onto outer rim of crust in pie plate to make a thicker rim. If desired, make desired decorative edge. Pour filling into pie crust. Place pie on prepared pan in oven; bake 15 minutes. 4. With small cookie cutter or knife, cut out several leaf shapes. Transfer leaves to prepared cookie sheet; with knife, press lines on leaves to resemble veins. Reduce oven temperature to 350°. Bake pie 22 minutes or until knife inserted 1 inch from edge of pie comes out clean and center is almost set; bake leaves on middle oven rack 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer leaves to wire rack to cool completely; remove pie from oven; cool completely on wire rack. 5. Refrigerate pie at least 2 hours before serving or up to overnight. Store leaves in air tight container until ready to use. Arrange leaves in circular pattern on top of pie just before serving. Cut pie into 8 pieces; serve topped with whipped cream, if desired.

t c e f r pe ies p

Salted Caramel Apple Pie Salted Caramel 1 cup granulated sugar 6 tbsp. salted butter, room temperature, cut into 6 pieces 1/2 cup heavy cream 1 tsp. salt Pie 6 (approximately 10-12 cups) large apples, cored, peeled, and thinly sliced (use many apple varieties for better flavor) 1/2 cup granulated sugar 2 tsp. fresh lemon zest 3 tbsp. fresh lemon juice 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 tsp. ground cloves 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg 11/2 tsp. ground cinnamon 2 pie crusts, homemade or store-bought Egg Wash 1 large egg beaten with 1 Tbsp. milk Coarse sugar for sprinkling on crust, optional Salted Caramel 1. Heat granulated sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly with a high heat-resistant rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Sugar will form clumps and eventually melt into a thick brown, amber-colored liquid as you continue to stir. Be careful not to burn. 2. Once sugar is completely melted, immediately add the butter. Be careful in this step because the caramel will bubble rapidly when the butter is added. 3. Stir the butter in until it is completely melted, about 2 minutes. If you notice the butter separating, remove from heat and vigorously whisk to combine it again. 4. Very slowly drizzle in heavy cream while stirring. Since the heavy cream is colder than the caramel, the mixture will rapidly bubble when added. Allow the mixture to boil for 1 minute. It will rise in the pan as it boils.

5. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of salt. Allow to cool slightly before using. Caramel thickens as it cools. Pie 1. Place apple slices into a very large bowl. Add sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, flour, cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Gently toss to combine. Set aside. 2. Carefully place one pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. With a small and sharp knife, trim the overhang of crust and discard. 3. Fill the pie crust with the apples. Pile them tightly (they will create a tall pile). Drizzle with 1/2 cup of the salted caramel, reserving the rest for topping. 4. Preheat oven to 400°. 5. Place the second pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Using a pastry wheel, sharp knife, or pizza cutter, cut 16 strips 1/2-inch wide. Carefully thread the strips over and under one another on top of the pie, pulling back strips as necessary to weave. Using a small and sharp knife, trim the extra overhang. Crimp the edges of the dough with a fork or your fingers. 6. Lightly brush the lattice top with the egg wash. Sprinkle with coarse sugar. 7. Place the pie onto a large baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Keeping the pie in the oven, turn the temperature down to 375° and bake for an additional 40-50 minutes. If the top of your pie is getting too brown, cover loosely with aluminum foil. The pie will be done when the caramel begins to bubble up. 8. Allow the pie to cool for 4 hours before serving. Drizzle the pie with the extra caramel sauce to serve.

t c e f r pe ies p Pecan Pie 1 pie crust, homemade or store-bought 21/2 cups pecans, very coarsely chopped 3 large eggs 1 cup dark corn syrup 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar 11/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon 1. Preheat oven to 350°. 2. Carefully place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Spread pecans evenly inside pie crust. Set aside. 3. Whisk the eggs, corn syrup, brown sugar, vanilla, butter, salt, and cinnamon together in a large bowl. Once completely combined and thick, pour evenly over pecans. 4. Bake the pie for 40-50 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned. After the first 20 minutes of bake time, place a pie crust shield (or strip of aluminum foil) on the edges of the pie to prevent the burning. Remove finished pie from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool completely. The pie filling will settle as it cools. 5. Slice and serve pie warm or at room temperature.
