ROAST TURKEY WITH MUSTARD MAPLE GLAZE



Roast Turkey with Mustard Maple Glaze image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 cups Grade B maple syrup
2 heaping tablespoons prepared horseradish, drained
2 heaping tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 large carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
3 large stalks celery, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 large onions, quartered
One 17-pound fresh turkey, rinsed well and patted dry
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/4 sticks (10 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted, plus 1/2 stick, unmelted
12 cups homemade chicken stock
1 stick unsalted butter
7 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Splash white wine, optional
Chopped fresh herbs, such as sage, parsley, or tarragon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the mustard maple glaze: Whisk together the maple syrup, horseradish, mustard and ancho in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Cover and let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (Can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored, covered, in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before using.)
  • For the turkey: Remove the turkey from the refrigerator 1 hour prior to roasting. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Scatter the carrots, celery and onions in a large roasting pan and set a roasting rack on top. Place the turkey on the rack and sprinkle the cavity with salt and pepper. Brush the entire turkey with the melted butter and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups of the chicken stock and the 1/2 stick butter; keep warm over low heat. Ladle a cup or so over the bird.
  • Transfer the turkey to the oven and roast until light golden brown, 45 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and continue roasting, basting with a few cups of the warm chicken stock mixture every 15 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 145 degrees F. Return the turkey to the oven and cook, basting with mustard maple glaze every 10 minutes, until it reaches an internal temperature of 155 degrees F. The total roasting time will be about 2 hours 45 minutes.
  • Transfer the turkey to a large cutting board, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 30 minutes to 1 hour before slicing. Meanwhile, strain the drippings from the roasting pan into a bowl, discarding the solids. If needed, add enough of any remaining chicken stock to make 6 cups of liquid.
  • For the gravy: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook until light golden brown. Slowly whisk the drippings into the flour mixture. Bring to a boil, whisking until the mixture begins to thicken and the flour taste has been cooked out, about 10 minutes. Add more stock if needed and a splash of white wine if desired, and cook for 2 minutes longer. Fold in the herbs and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

ROAST TURKEY WITH MUSTARD-MAPLE GLAZE



Roast Turkey with Mustard-Maple Glaze image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 cups dark pure maple syrup
2 heaping tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 heaping tablespoons prepared horseradish, drained
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 17-pound fresh turkey, patted dry (neck and giblets removed)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, slightly softened
12 cups homemade chicken stock
3 large carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
3 large stalks celery, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 large onions, quartered
1 stick unsalted butter
7 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Splash of dry white wine (optional)
1/4 cup chopped mixed fresh herbs (such as sage, parsley and tarragon)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Make the glaze: Whisk the maple syrup, mustard, horseradish and chile powder in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Cover and let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (The glaze can be made up to 2 days in advance; store, covered, in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before using.)
  • Prepare the turkey: Remove the turkey from the refrigerator 1 hour before roasting. Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Season the cavity of the turkey with salt and pepper. Rub the outside of the turkey with the butter and season liberally with salt and pepper. Put 4 cups chicken stock in a medium saucepan and keep warm over low heat.
  • Place the carrots, celery and onions in a large roasting pan and place a roasting rack on top. Put the turkey on the rack, place in the oven and roast until light golden brown, about 45 minutes. (Tent the turkey loosely with foil if it is browning too quickly.) Reduce the oven temperature to 350˚ F, baste with 2 cups warm stock and continue roasting, basting with 2 more cups warm stock halfway through, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 155˚, about 1 hour. After the turkey reaches 155˚ F, begin basting with the maple glaze; continue roasting, basting with the glaze every 10 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 165˚ F, about 20 more minutes.
  • Remove the turkey from the oven and transfer to a large cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let rest at least 45 minutes before slicing. Strain the drippings into a bowl and discard the solids. Add enough of the remaining chicken stock to make 6 cups liquid.
  • Make the gravy: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook until light golden brown, about 8 minutes. Slowly whisk in the stock-drippings mixture, then bring to a boil and whisk until the gravy begins thickening and the flour taste has been cooked out, about 10 minutes. Add more stock until you reach the desired consistency. If desired, add a splash of white wine and cook 2 more minutes. Stir in the herbs and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the remaining stock in a saucepan over low heat. Remove the turkey legs and wings, then remove the dark meat and shred. Remove the breasts and cut crosswise into 1-inch-thick slices. Ladle some of the warm stock on top of the turkey and serve with the gravy.

MUSTARD BUTTER-BASTED ROAST TURKEY WITH BACON



Mustard butter-basted roast turkey with bacon image

Ensure juicy meat by inserting streaky bacon under the skin of your big bird. A tangy mustard baste creates an extra tasty gravy

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dinner

Time 4h30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

5-5.5kg oven-ready turkey , neck and giblets removed (save them to make stock, if you like)
250g pack dry-cured smoked streaky bacon (about 12 rashers)
a little mustard (optional)
drizzle of olive oil
sea salt flakes
1 onion , quartered
1 large thyme sprig
a few bay leaves
glass of dry white wine
bay leaves and chopped thyme , for scattering
85g butter , softened
1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
1 tsp English mustard
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Weigh your turkey and calculate the cooking time by allowing 40 mins per kg for the first 4kg, then 45 mins for every kg of turkey over that weight. As a guide, a turkey this size should take 3½-4 hrs plus 30-45 mins resting time.
  • To make the mustard butter, beat the butter with the mustards, thyme and some ground black pepper until soft and well mixed.
  • Gently push your fingers under the skin of the turkey, starting from the neck, until you can push your whole hand in down the length of the breast - take care not to tear the skin. Spread the butter under the skin so that it covers the breasts. Lay the streaky bacon on your work surface in 2 rectangles of 6 overlapping rashers (for extra flavour, you can brush the bacon with a little wholegrain or English mustard first), and carefully push each rectangle of bacon under the skin to cover and protect each breast. This can be done the night before, but take out of the fridge for 1 hr before roasting so that it comes back to room temperature.
  • On the day, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lift the turkey into a roasting tin, massage the olive oil into the skin and season well with flaky salt and pepper. Put the onion, thyme and bay inside the cavity of the turkey, then pour in the wine. Cover the tin loosely with foil and roast for the calculated cooking time. For the final 30 mins, remove the foil and pour off all of the cooking juices (use for the gravy; recipe in 'goes well with'). Increase the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and roast for 30 mins more until the turkey is golden and the juices that run out of the thigh are clear, with no sign of pink, when pierced with a skewer. Leave to rest on a warm platter covered with foil and tea towels - it will keep like this for up to 45 mins.
  • To serve, carve the turkey and arrange the meat on a hot platter with a little of the hot gravy poured over, or bring the whole turkey to the table garnished with herbs. To fill the platter, you could surround the turkey with potatoes, if you like. Any leftover meat can be frozen in the gravy.

TURKEY MUSHROOM GRAVY



Turkey Mushroom Gravy image

I have been making Thanksgiving dinner every year since the 1970's. I have tried every kind of turkey gravy. I created this recipe about 15 years ago. It is everyone's favorite, even the people who hate mushrooms. Serve with roasted turkey and cornbread stuffing!

Provided by ranch_maven

Categories     Side Dish     Sauces and Condiments Recipes     Gravy Recipes     Turkey Gravy Recipes

Time 2h30m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups unsalted butter
1 pound portobello mushrooms, wiped clean with paper towels
2 pounds whole white mushrooms, wiped clean with paper towels
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 ½ cups turkey pan drippings
2 cups chopped onions
1 cup chopped celery
salt and pepper to taste
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large stock pot over medium-low heat, and cook the mushrooms until they are browned and the butter is clear, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Remove the mushrooms, coarsely chop them, and set aside. There should be about 1 cup of butter left in the stock pot; whisk the flour into the butter, and gently cook over low heat until the flour mixture turns mahogany brown in color, about 20 minutes. Whisk in the chicken broth; bring the mixture to a simmer to thicken the stock.
  • Pour the turkey drippings into a saucepan, then cook and stir the onions and celery in the drippings over medium-low heat until the onions begin to turn brown, about 20 minutes. Stir the drippings and vegetables into the thickened stock. Bring the gravy to a gentle boil, reduce heat, and simmer for about 20 minutes to blend the flavors. Stir in the chopped mushrooms, then season to taste with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Turkey Recipes

Time 4h5m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 whole turkey (14 to 16 pounds), neck and giblets separated, room temperature, patted dry
1 medium onion, cut into 8 wedges
2 carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 celery stalks, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 bay leaf
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 orange, halved
1 head garlic, halved
8 sprigs thyme, plus 2 teaspoons fresh leaves
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/3 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
3 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Turkey: In a saucepan, combine turkey neck and giblets with half each of onion, carrots, and celery; bay leaf; and 6 cups water. Season with salt and pepper; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer 1 hour. Strain through a mesh sieve into a bowl (you should have at least 4 cups stock). If desired, pull meat from neck and chop giblets into bite-size pieces; reserve for gravy.
  • Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Combine 2 tablespoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Season both cavities of turkey with half of salt-pepper mixture. Stuff large cavity with half of orange, half of garlic, and thyme sprigs. Tie legs together with kitchen twine. Stuff neck cavity with remaining orange half. Rub butter evenly all over skin, then season with remaining salt-pepper mixture. Place remaining onion, carrot, celery, and garlic in a roasting pan in a single layer. Top with a roasting rack. Transfer turkey to rack. Pour 1 cup stock into pan.
  • Roast turkey 1 hour, adding water or more stock to pan, 1/4 cup at a time, if bottom becomes dry and begins to blacken. Meanwhile, boil maple syrup in a saucepan until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in mustard and thyme leaves.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees; continue roasting turkey until a thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh (near but not touching bone) registers 150 degrees, 30 to 35 minutes. Brush with maple-syrup mixture (if it has begun to solidify, rewarm over low heat first) and continue roasting, basting every 15 minutes with more maple-syrup mixture, until thermometer registers 165 degrees, 35 to 45 minutes more, depending on bird size. (Reserve any extra syrup mixture for gravy.) Transfer turkey to a carving board or platter; let stand at least 20 minutes.
  • Gravy: Meanwhile, remove rack, onion, carrots, celery, and garlic from roasting pan; discard vegetables. Place pan across two burners; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add wine; boil until mostly evaporated, about 1 minute. Add 2 1/2 cups stock to pan; return to a boil. Whisk remaining 1/2 cup stock into flour. Slowly add flour mixture to pan, whisking constantly; continue boiling until thickened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in any remaining maple-syrup mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Strain gravy through a mesh sieve into a bowl. Stir in reserved neck meat and giblets, if desired. Carve turkey; serve with gravy.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, truss the turkey before roasting. This will help the turkey cook evenly and prevent the wings and legs from overcooking.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the turkey. The turkey is done when the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the breast and 180°F (82°C) in the thigh.
  • Let the turkey rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the turkey, resulting in a more flavorful and tender bird.
  • To make the mushroom gravy, use a variety of mushrooms for a more complex flavor. Some good options include cremini mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Be sure to cook the mushrooms until they are browned and tender. This will bring out their flavor and make the gravy more flavorful.
  • Add a splash of white wine or sherry to the gravy for a more complex flavor.

Conclusion:

This mustard-rubbed roast turkey with mushroom gravy is a delicious and festive dish that is perfect for a holiday meal. The mustard rub gives the turkey a flavorful crust, while the mushroom gravy adds a rich and savory flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
