Steps:
- For the turkey: Remove the turkey from the refrigerator 1 hour before roasting.
- Combine the butter, sage, rosemary, thyme, and parsley in a food processor and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Season the cavity of the turkey with salt and pepper and fill the cavity with half of the carrots, celery, and onion. Rub the entire turkey with herb butter and season liberally with salt and pepper.
- Put 4 cups of the chicken stock in a medium saucepan and keep warm over low heat.
- Place the remaining vegetables on the bottom of a large roasting pan. Put the turkey on top of the vegetables, put in the oven, and roast in the oven until lightly golden brown, 45 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and continue roasting, basting with the warm chicken stock every 15 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thigh registers 160 degrees F, about 2 to 2 1/4 hours longer. Remove the turkey from the oven, transfer to baking sheet and tent loosely with foil, and let rest 20 minutes before slicing.
- For the sage gravy:
- Strain the cooking liquid from the roasting pan into a medium saucepan (should be about 4 cups, if not, add more stock to make 4 cups). Add the neck, bring to a boil, add the sage leaves, remove from the heat, and let steep for 15 minutes. Remove the sage leaves.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine and cook until reduced. Whisk in the stock and cook until thickened and smooth, about 5 minutes. Season with the salt and pepper and chopped sage.

MOUTHWATERING HERB ROASTED TURKEY
I have made several turkeys in the past, but I wanted this year's bird to be extra special. So I search many recipes and finally decided on 5 of them. I combined what I like the most in all of them to make this wonderful tasting turkey.

Steps:
- Note: Throughly thaw the turkey before starting any of these steps.
- Preparation: Mix all the spices in a bowl then add the oil to the mixture. Set aside to use later.
- Remove the neck & giblets from the cavities, use as you desire or throw away.
- In a clean sink, rinse the turkey both inside & out with cold water. Leave the turkey in the sink for the next steps.
- With the breast side down lift the skin near the rear of the turkey. Use a knife & carefully cut away the membranes holding the skin to the turkey.
- (You do not want to remove the skin completely. You only want to be able to get your hand under the skin. Make sure the skin is still attached at all sides or you will have difficulty later).
- Flip the turkey over and do the same with the other side.
- Now that the breast side is up, take a small amount of the spice mixture in your palm. Rub the mixture over the meat, under the skin. You want a thin layer over all the breast.
- Flip the turkey back over and do the same with the other side. (Make sure there is a little mixture left over for the legs and wings).
- Boil a kettle of scalding hot water.
- Take several toothpicks & secure the skin down at the openings of the turkey. (It will be loose since you cut away the membranes).
- Pour hot water over the entire turkey. The skin will shrink tightly to the bird as you pour the water. (This will help hold the natural juices in the turkey while it is cooking).
- Remove the toothpicks. Salt & pepper the inside of the turkey liberally.
- Take the rest of the mixture & spread it over the legs, wings, & the outside of the turkey (in that order).
- Cooking: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Place a pop-up turkey timer into the breast of the bird. (If it doesn't already have one).
- Pour the can of chicken broth into the bottom of a roasting pan. Then place the turkey breast side down in the pan; cover loosely with foil.
- Note: A 12lb turkey, like I used, should take around 4 hours to cook.
- Cook the turkey for 3 hours with the foil on. Then uncover the turkey, baste with the broth in the pan, and then flip the turkey over.
- Cook for the last hour with the breast side up so it can brown. The turkey is done when the red part of the timer pops up.
- Note: The broth and spices in the bottom of the pan can be used to make a great tasting gravy.

HERB ROASTED TURKEY
This really is a moist and flavourful way to cook a turkey. The smell alone, when it is roasting, lures everyone into the kitchen. You can hardly wait for it to be done so you can tuck in to it. I have done this with turkey crowns as well with lots of success. I hope you will try it and like it as much as we do. This recipe was a grand prize winner in a Taste of Home turkey recipe contest.
