SIMPLEST ROAST TURKEY RECIPE - DANA COWIN | FOOD & WINE



Simplest Roast Turkey Recipe - Dana Cowin | Food & Wine image

The trick to this minimalist roast turkey is allowing it to air-dry overnight in the refrigerator, resulting in supercrispy skin. Slideshow:  Fast Thanksgiving Turkey Recipes 

Provided by Dana Cowin

Total Time 5 hours 0 minutes

Yield 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 4

One 13- to 15-pound turkey
2 tablespoons kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Rinse the turkey inside and out under cold water and pat it thoroughly dry with paper towels. Season the cavity with 1/2 tablespoon of the salt, then season the outside with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of salt. Put the turkey on a large plate and refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours. Let the turkey stand at room temperature for 1 hour before roasting.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°. Rub the turkey all over with the olive oil, season with salt and the pepper and transfer to a large roasting pan. Roast for about 1 hour, until lightly golden. Reduce the oven temperature to 375° and roast for 2 to 2 1/4 hours longer, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in an inner thigh registers 165°; cover the breast with foil if it browns too quickly. Transfer the turkey to a carving board and let rest for at least 45 minutes before carving and serving.

Prep Time 0S

Cook Time 0S

Yield 24 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 bag microwave light popcorn
1 jar salted dry-roasted peanuts (2 1/2 cups)
1 c. butter (no substitutions)
1 c. granulated sugar
1 c. packed light brown sugar
1/2 c. light corn syrup
1/2 tsp. baking soda

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Lightly grease two 15 1/2" by 10 1/2" jelly-roll pans or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Place popped corn in very large bowl; discard any unpopped kernels. Add peanuts; toss to combine. Set aside. In 3-quart saucepan, heat butter, sugars, and corn syrup on medium until butter melts and sugars dissolve, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently with metal spoon or heat-safe spatula. Increase heat to medium-high and heat to boiling, about 3 minutes; boil 3 minutes longer. Remove saucepan from heat; stir in baking soda (mixture will bubble vigorously), and pour over popcorn mixture in bowl. Stir immediately; continue stirring until all popcorn is evenly coated. Divide popcorn mixture between prepared jelly-roll pans; spread evenly. Place pans on 2 oven racks. Bake popcorn mixture 45 minutes, rotating pans between upper and lower racks halfway through baking and stirring occasionally. Cool popcorn mixture completely in pans on wire racks, about 1 hour. Break apart any large clusters of popcorn when cool. Store in tightly sealed containers at room temperature up to 2 weeks.

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt. Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the flour mixture, mixing until just incorporated. Shape the dough into four 1-inch-thick disks and roll each between 2 sheets of wax paper to 1/8 inch thick. Refrigerate until firm. Using the templates as a guide, cut the cookie dough and refrigerate until firm (chilled dough helps transfer the cookies to baking sheets). Reroll, chill, and cut the scraps. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment. Place the cookies on the prepared sheets. Bake, rotating the position of the pans halfway through, until the cookies are set, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on the sheet for 3 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. While the cookies are cooling, make the royal icing. Separate into bowls and tint different colors. Transfer 1/3 of each color to separate pastry bags fitted with fine tips. Use a few drops of water to thin the icing remaining in the bowls for flooding and place in separate resealable plastic bags; snip off the corners. Using the thicker icing, outline clothes on each cookie, then fill using the thinner flooding icing. Let dry between colors (for a sparkly finish, sprinkle with sanding sugar while the icing is wet). If desired, dust a platter with a thick layer of confectioners' sugar. Place decorated cookies on the sugar, pressing down and twisting to make angel shapes in the "snow."

  • Place a marshmallow onto each lollipop stick with the flat sides facing out. One exception: If making Frankenstein's monster, place the marshmallows on the sticks with the flat sides facing up and down. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate according to package directions. To make Draculas or mummies, dip one marshmallow at a time into the melted chocolate, tapping gently on the edge of the bowl to shake off any excess. Place the sticks upright into florist's foam or a large bowl filled with granulated sugar or crushed chocolate cookies. Let stand at room temperature until set, 30 minutes. To make Frankenstein's monsters or jack-o'-lanterns, tint the chocolate with green or orange food color (you will need to mix in 3 to 5 tsp of oil for every 1/2 cup melted chocolate to keep it from stiffening). Dip as directed above. Tint 1/2 cup of the white frosting green and 1/2 cup red. Place the red, green, remaining white and chocolate frostings in the pastry bags and decorate, following the directions. Let set for 30 minutes before serving.
