Basting a Turkey
[Music]
basting
begin by removing the turkey from the
oven
this makes basting much safer using a
bowl baster or deep spoon pour the juice
from the bottom of the roasting pan over
the top of the bird you'll probably end
up doing this two or three times during
the roasting process when you do do
remember that you want to close the oven
door as you work so you don't lose too
much heat that's one of the reasons that
turkeys end up taking a long time to
cook basting in Turkey not only enriches
its flavour in color but keeps the bird
moist if the bottom of the pan seems dry
after a couple of hours of cooking add
some broth or water to it you can base
the turkey one last time after it comes
out of the oven
