Honey Glazed Cantonese Turkey image

Cantonese people have been expertly roasting poultry of all kinds for hundreds of years, so why not add a Thanksgiving Honey Glazed Cantonese Turkey to the list? If you're looking to mix things up, prepare this turkey with plenty of Chinese flavors and a honey glaze.

Time 3h35m

Number Of Ingredients 15

13-15 pound turkey ((fully thawed and rinsed clean))
¼ cup ground bean sauce
3 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
4 cloves garlic ((minced))
1 tablespoon finely minced shallot
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1½ tablespoons salt
3 tablespoons Shaoxing wine
1 teaspoon five spice powder
3-4 pieces dried Chinese tangerine peel
3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes ((peeled and cut into 1½-inch pieces))
1 whole leek ((about 8 oz/225g, chopped and thoroughly washed to remove sand and grit))
⅓ cup hot water
2 teaspoons red Zhejiang vinegar
3 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • First, thaw your turkey. Make sure you provide plenty of time for this step. It's best to let your turkey thaw overnight in the kitchen sink a couple of days before Thanksgiving (if it's frozen solid) or the day before you're going to cook it (preferably the morning, as it will still need to marinate). When the turkey is completely thawed, remove it from the wrapper, and if the inside of the turkey is still frozen, run some warm water into the cavity and let it sit for a few more hours to thaw. If you're in a hurry, you can soak the turkey in lukewarm water to aid the thawing process.
  • This is the single most important step to ensuring your turkey cooks evenly. Be sure to also remove the giblet package in the cavity and thoroughly rinse the cavity and outside of the turkey. Next, drain all of the water from the cavity, and pat the whole turkey dry with paper towels. You can also let it drip dry on a rack.
  • Make the marinade by mixing together ¼ cup ground bean sauce, 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce, 4 teaspoons minced garlic, 1 tablespoon finely minced shallot, 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger, 1½ tablespoons salt, 3 tablespoons Shaoxing wine, and 1 teaspoon five spice powder.
  • Rub the turkey down inside and out with the marinade, ensuring all surfaces are thoroughly coated. Work the marinade under the skin where possible. If you think you have too much marinade, use the surplus amount in the cavity. Finish the turkey by placing the Chinese dried tangerine peels into the cavity.
  • Place the turkey in a roasting pan, cover it with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. The next day, take the turkey out 3 hours prior to roasting to bring it up to room temperature.
  • When you're ready to cook the turkey, line the roasting pan with the 3 pounds of chopped potatoes and the chopped leek. Place the turkey on top of the vegetables, breast side down. (We're going to flip it later).
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F, and arrange an oven rack in the lower third of the oven. While that's happening, prepare the glaze. Mix together ⅓ cup hot water, 2 teaspoons red Zhejiang vinegar, and 3 tablespoons of honey. Set aside.
  • Roast your Cantonese turkey for 30 minutes. Then use a basting brush to glaze the turkey with your honey mixture and rotate the pan 180 degrees. Roast for another 30 minutes, and give the turkey another basting with the glaze.
  • Remove the turkey from the oven, and lower the temperature to 325 degrees F. Using a clean kitchen towel and a sturdy roasting fork, flip the turkey breast-side up. Carefully brush off any vegetables that may be stuck to the turkey, taking care not to damage the skin on the breast.
  • Roast the turkey at the lower temperature for another hour and 5 minutes (for a 13 pound turkey) to an hour and a half (for a 15 pound turkey). Glaze the turkey every 15 minutes, and rotate the pan halfway through the second block of roasting time. If the turkey is browning too much, tent it lightly with aluminum foil.
  • The surest way to check if your turkey is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature of the thigh should register 165 degrees and the juices should run clear (not pink).
  • When your turkey is done, transfer it to a serving plate, cover it lightly with aluminum foil, and let it rest for 20 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to scoop the potatoes and leeks out of the pan. Serve them as-is, or make them into a delicious side of roasted mashed potatoes (just add milk, butter, and salt to taste). Lastly, pour the pan drippings through a fine mesh strainer into a fat separator to make the gravy.

CANTONESE-STYLE TURKEY



Cantonese-Style Turkey image

In this vaguely Cantonese turkey, the bird is roasted beneath a rich glaze of fermented soybean paste, garlic, ginger, soy sauce and alliums galore, then served with roasted potatoes basted in the sauce and drippings of the bird. It came to The Times from Dr. Carolyn Ling, a physician in Carmel, Ind., whose grandfather came to the United States in the late 19th century from southern China and set up an import-export firm in Manhattan. There were other investments as well. Her grandfather, Dr. Ling told me, had "interests in restaurants." Those interests played a big role in the Ling family's early Thanksgiving feasts: They ate takeout. Dr. Ling's father, a doctor who fought at Anzio in Italy in 1944 and earned a Bronze Star, loved those meals. When Dr. Ling was young, she said, her father urged her mother, a passionate home cook and reader of Gourmet, to emulate them in her holiday cooking at home in Forest Hills, Queens. The result is remarkably easy to prepare, phenomenally juicy, and rich, Dr. Ling said, "with the umami of soy and turkey fat."

Time 6h

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 12- to 14-pound turkey
4 tablespoons neutral oil (such as canola)
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 3-inch knob ginger, peeled and minced
6 scallions, thinly sliced
2 leeks, thinly sliced (white and light green parts only)
4 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1/3 cup soybean sauce (preferably Lee Kum Kee brand)
1 2-inch strip dried orange or tangerine peel (or use 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed orange juice)
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1/2 cup rice wine or sherry
1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
3 1/2 pounds small Yukon Gold potatoes, halved
Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Remove turkey from refrigerator and pat dry with paper towels. Place on a rack in a roasting pan and allow turkey to come to room temperature while you prepare the sauce.
  • Swirl 3 tablespoons oil into a wok or large Dutch oven and set over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. Add scallions, leeks and celery and cook, stirring often, until vegetables soften and cook down, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Add soybean sauce, orange peel, sugar, rice wine or sherry, white pepper, soy sauce and oyster sauce to the vegetable mixture, along with 2 cups water. Turn heat to high and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and allow mixture to simmer and thicken, 30 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool 20 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Spoon 1 cup of the sauce over turkey and spoon 2 tablespoons into its cavity. Tuck the tips of the wings under the bird and truss its legs together with kitchen string. Pour remaining sauce and 2 cups water into roasting pan and transfer to oven. Roast turkey, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
  • Reduce oven to 325 degrees. Baste turkey with pan juices, and tent it with foil. Continue roasting another 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours, basting every 30 minutes with pan juices, until a thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 165 degrees. If pan starts to look dry, add hot water or turkey or chicken stock, if you have any, 1 cup at a time.
  • Transfer turkey to a cutting board or platter and let rest at least 30 minutes before carving. Pour pan drippings into a small pot, adding enough warm water or stock to equal 1 cup, and keep warm on the stove.
  • Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees. Grease a large sheet pan with 1 tablespoon oil, and arrange halved potatoes on the pan, cut side down. Season with salt and black pepper, and slide potatoes into the oven. Cook, undisturbed, until potatoes are tender and cut sides are nicely browned and crisped, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove pan from the oven, drizzle reserved drippings all over potatoes, toss and return to the oven to finish cooking, 5 minutes longer. Serve potatoes with turkey.
