That's what I made today. Fantastic Christmas dinner. Served with a not overly paired merlot.( it's what I had, I didn't get a chance to do a real pairing)
All myself from start to finish. That turkey was moist to the bone.
My skill Asa cook has greatly increased over the last two months.
I look forward to doing a stock reduction tomorrow and a soup the next day.
