Word is we’re going to be trying something new this year and cooking outside of the kitchen.
Listen to an interview (requires Realplayer) with William Rubel, author of The Magic of Fire, to learn what you could be doing in your fireplace.
The idea is that you skewer your turkey, tie a string to it, and hang it from the ceiling in front of your fireplace. If the string is long enough, the dangling turkey can be made to slowly spin for a few minutes with a single push. Three hours of spinning and basting later, you will have, in Rubel’s words, “A perfect roast! A deep, rich color,” and his pictures certainly do bear this out.
I’m not making this up. Read the recipe.
We will be cooking at an undisclosed location on campus. If you’re going to be around, why not drop a line?
