Recipe: Whole Roast Turkey

Summary: Coat the turkey with olive oil, and then lay it on a bed of onion, carrot and celery, skin side up. Add salt, pepper, herbs and olive oil to the bird, then 1/2 cup of water. Cover the turkey with foil. The foil and water let the turkey cook through without burning.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium-size turkey
  • 1 onion 2 carrots
  • 3 sticks of celery
  • Olive oil
  • Salt,
  • pepper and herbs of choice

Instructions

  1. Fire your oven until hot, and then let the heat fall to a moderate temperature, roughly 450-500°F. If you have fired your oven for a longer period (2 hours or more), rake out the coals to allow the temperature to keep falling. If you do not have enough retained heat in the oven, you can leave a small fire or coals at the start of cooking. Add the turkey to your oven, and let it roast for 2-3 hours until done. Use a meat thermometer to test the internal temperature. Remember that a wood-fired oven is a naturally moist type of cooking, so the exact cooking time is less important than in a conventional oven. After about 1 hour, remove the foil, and let the turkey brown. Take the turkey out of the oven, and cover it to rest. You can use the pan drippings to start your gravy!

Recipe: Spicy Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Summary: Olive oil is a rich source of monounsaturated fat and antioxidants, olive oil is probably the only vegetable oil that can be consumed fresh.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 c good extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 1/2 tbsp red chili flakes
  • 2 whole sprigs oregano
  • 1 tbsp salt

Instructions

  1. Add olive oil to a small skillet and place just inside your oven.
  2. When the oil is hot, add the garlic. (Note: You’re not frying the garlic – you’re looking to extract as much flavor from it as possible. Frying or cooking garlic to a high heat will result in a bitter taste.)
  3. After a minute or so, add the chili flakes and oregano. Stir to avoid sticking.
  4. When the garlic begins to brown, pull out of the oven.
  5. Set aside and allow to cool to room temperature.
  6. Jar and refrigerate any oil that is not used in this recipe for later use for an incredible flavor on Pizza Bianca.
