Ingredients
1/3 cup paprika
1 salt
1 garlic powder
1 onion, dried
1 pepper
1 water, to make paste
Directions
This will do about a 13-15lb turkey. Other seasonings are to taste. I
never did measure. This is a coating you can put on all poultry before
roasting. Basically you make a paste of the above ingredients. It
should be the consistencey of finger paint--thick and not runny. If
you have kids, put them in old clothes and let them help. I smear it
in and out of the cavity. Notice that this does not have any Gravy
Master or oil...both unneeeded in my opinion. The skin cooks nice and
crisp. Remember to baste during cooking. BTW, use this in the Nuke
too.
Sometimes we do a turkey or chicken in there when we have lot's of
other baking/roasting to do. When Howard was in training to be a
Chef, he brought home a bunch of fellow students for dinner. Not one
of them even came close to guessing that the turkey had been made in
the nuke. I hope all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.

The History of Recipes
Experts have found proof that recipes existed far back into the far past, in fact as far into history as the Egyptians, and maybe even further. However, sadly, these old records were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Closer to modern times, we find some books from the 1300s : a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Surprisingly, they are not about the curry that is familiar to us all today, but instead descriptions of the types of meals on the menues of the rich and wealthy people of that period. By the arrival of the 1900s, cookbooks were greatly in demand due to higher levels of literacy, increased leisure time and having more money to spend. |
