Advice :

Brining technique:

- Place the raw turkey in a plastic, glass, or stainless steel container.
- Add cold water until it is completely covered
- Add 1 to 1.4% of the total weight (turkey + water) in salt
- Mix well so that the salt is completely dissolved *

* Instead of adding the salt directly to the container, mix it separately. To do this, take about 10% of the water that covers the turkey in a container. Heat it and add the salt. Stir until completely dissolved and pour the mixture into the container where your turkey is. 

The duration of your brining period depends on the weight of your turkey. Generally, you count 1 hour per pound of meat. In most cases, 24 hours of brining is more than sufficient. However, be careful not to exceed this time. It could make your meat less tender and too salty. 

Cooking temperature: 82ºC

• Preheat the oven to 425ºF.
• Place the turkey in a roasting pan.
• Cook for about 30 minutes.
• Reduce the temperature to 325ºF. For a 5 kg turkey, continue cooking for about 2 more hours or until the internal temperature of the thigh reaches 80ºC. Baste 2 or 3 times during cooking.
• Let your turkey rest outside the oven for about 20 minutes so it can gain the extra degrees.
• Serve and enjoy.
