Whew. The video did NOT run for 2 hours. I really didn't think it would but I couldn't resist checking out the turkey-cooking video advertised in my email from Tom Thumb. (Video was 3.5 minutes.)And even though I figured it was the turkey that takes 2 hours, not the video, I was curious as to why it would take only 2 hours to cook a bird.
Hang onto your hat. The recommended oven temperature is 475 degrees.
When did that become acceptable? The video also advised placing a meat thermometer all the way down to the bone. When did that become acceptable?
OK. So, maybe I don't keep up with the culinary arts. Maybe I don't actually have a meat thermometer anymore. And the video lady also had an oven thermometer, which I certainly have never had. Well, as long as we're itemizing, I also don't have the V-shaped rack needed for this roasting instruction. Nor the kosher salt. Nor the pepper.
I have olive oil. And the video.
