Cooking Tips
- Be sure to use a rack in your roasting pan so the fat drips to the bottom. Spray the rack with vegetable cooking spray.
- There is no need to baste the turkey. It will be crisper this way, and you won’t add the pan fat back to the turkey.
-Reduce the fat in your turkey and gravy by pouring reduced-fat chicken broth into the roasting pan.
-To de-fat drippings, pour in glass measuring cup, let fat rise to top, then scoop off. Purchase a Gravy Separator to make the job easier.
-Avoid canned gravy — it’s high in sodium, fat, and is not particularly tasty.
