The Secret To A Perfect Roast Turkey

Everyone longs for a perfectly juicy roast turkey on Christmas Day, but it's sometimes hard to get it completely right... Follow these tips and you'll have the family wanting more and more...

Rubbing Butter underneath the skin of a turkey adds TONS of flavour and bastes the turkey automatically whilst it's cooking. It keeps the meat moist throughout the roasting process.

Don't truss the legs together too tightly because it means the legs then take longer to cook, causing the breast meat to be overdone sometimes. It's sometimes best to cook it with no trussing.

The most important part of roasting a Turkey is letting it rest! Do not be afraid to let it rest a long long time. The longer the better without letting it get cold. If you wrap the turkey in foil after taking it out of the oven you can rest it for around an hour. The juices will redistribute.

The resting time will help you get everything else ready too. I hope your Christmas dinner is perfect with a perfect turkey! :) thanks for reading and good luck! Xxx
