How long should you cook a 2.2kg turkey crown for?
I cannot give you an exact cooking time for a 2.2kg turkey crown. Here's why:
* Oven variations: Ovens vary in temperature and how they distribute heat.
* Turkey crown size and shape: A 2.2kg crown could be thicker or thinner than another, which affects cooking time.
* Stuffing: If your crown is stuffed, it will need more cooking time.
* Desired level of doneness: Some people prefer their turkey crown more well-done, others like it juicier.
Here's how to determine the correct cooking time:
1. Follow the recipe: If you're using a recipe, it should provide an estimated cooking time based on the weight.
2. Check the turkey crown's internal temperature: The most reliable way to ensure your turkey crown is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the meat, avoiding bone. The safe internal temperature for poultry is 165°F (74°C).
3. Start checking early: Begin checking the temperature about 15 minutes before the estimated time.
4. Rest the turkey: After cooking, let the turkey crown rest for about 15-20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute for a moister and more flavorful result.
Remember: Always follow the instructions on your recipe and use a meat thermometer to ensure your turkey crown is cooked safely.
