Whether you’re preparing a Thanksgiving turkey or simply hosting some friends for a dinner party, the way you prepare the turkey can make or break the entire meal. Here are some of the best ways that you can season your turkey for success.
Dry Brine
All you have to do is rub your herbs of choice and some salt all over the turkey before wrapping it in a plastic bag. Then, put it in the fridge and allow it to refrigerate for two days before serving.
Use Butter
In order to get the flavor to really sink in, sprinkle some salt and seasoning in softened butter. Once you mix it in, spread the seasoned butter both over and under the turkey skin to even the bird evenly.
Glaze It
Use a glaze to add some sweetness to your turkey. One type of glaze you could try is a mix of maple syrup, orange juice, and fresh sage. Make sure to baste your homemade glaze evenly across the entire turkey.
