Читать книгу Talk Turkey to Me - Renee S. Ferguson - Страница 54
“I’ve been in France for five years and engaged to a great guy for about a year. He’s a honey but he mentioned the other day that he wanted me to cook a turkey. I told him I’d make a ham but he said he really wanted turkey for the holiday. He thinks I’ve done it before but I never have and now I’m in a panic. I’m in deep x#@#! I don’t have directions. I don’t have a meat thermometer. Oh, wait, I’ll ask him where his meat thermometer is and he’ll just assume I know what I’m doing!”
ОглавлениеYou’ll possess confidence once you have a meat thermometer.
Eliminate the guesswork and just follow these simple guidelines:
Cooking to the Proper End Temperature
Regardless of the cooking method— whether roasting or grilling—the end temperatures are the same:
•Stuffing 160ºF
•Breast 170ºF
•Thigh 180ºF
Insert the meat thermometer into the thigh. To determine the right position, push the tip of the thermometer in until you reach the bone, but then pull back slightly so that it does not not actually touch the bone.
