How to cook a roasted turkey?

Make preparations the night before: 8 porcelain spoons of salt, 2 porcelain spoons of Sichuan peppercorns, 6 star anise, put in a wok, stir-fry over medium heat for 2 minutes until the salt turns yellow, then add a porcelain spoon of five-spice powder and mix well

A turkey was thawed in advance and placed in a large iron basin. I used a plastic box to prop it up in the belly of the chicken to let it Able to stand.

It’s the kind of storage box that IKEA sells for storing grains and cereals.

Put the turkey and the iron basin below in the kitchen sink, boil a large pot of boiling water, and pour the boiling water evenly over the turkey. This step is to scald the skin to tighten it, destroy the elasticity of the tissue, and bake it with crispy skin

After scalding the chicken skin, evenly apply the fried salt and pepper Coat the chicken body and abdominal cavity, and then put the turkey in a ventilated place and marinate overnight

After marinating overnight, rinse all the seasonings from the turkey the next morning Lose. Use three porcelain spoons of white vinegar and three porcelain spoons of honey to make crispy skin water, and brush it on the turkey skin.

Allow it to dry naturally for a few hours.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the turkey is brushed again with honey and white vinegar crispy water. Dip two apples (each cut into quarters), a few slices of bread? into the water, and stuff them into the turkey belly (this will keep the chicken fresh and tender after roasting)

Wrap the chicken legs and wings in tin foil , preheat the oven to 350℉ (about 175 degrees Celsius) and start baking.

Don’t put the top of the turkey too close to the electric heating tube, otherwise it will burn easily. My photo was too close to the top of the oven at first. Later I took off the upper rack and moved the turkey down one level.

Remember to take it out and turn it over every hour and brush it. Add the crispy water and continue baking.

The roasting time is approximately 13 minutes per pound of meat. My turkey last roasted for three and a half hours
