Not sharing a recipe...

HOLY CRAP!!!

If I had seen this post two days ago, I WOULD have done a whole turkey. That is AWESOME!

But nothing was added for the nipples? I'm looking at a lemon right now, and it doesn't appear that it would give me the erotic turkey that I'm hoping for as pictured.

Ira,
That's why you use fresh lemons: choose them for their, ah, potential

Meyer lemons and Valley lemons (it's a Harlingen-Weslaco-McAllen thang, I can't explain it) sometimes have a larger blossom-end. That's what you'd need, I'm thinking.

Ira,
This thread has forever changed the way you will shop for lemons.

Ignoring the thread divergence... I just used zest instead of whole citrus on my TD turkeys.

Recipes. They can't be copyrighted. You can copyright descriptive text but not the ingredients or basic instructions. Anyone with integrity would give credit to their source but you don't have to. I can understand someone who is known across the whole county for their flaggernuttenblat cake not wanting to divulge the secret- especially if it's actually easy to make. Otherwise the next potluck that Aunt Edna shows up at expecting a long line of folks with mouths watering for some flaggernuttenblat could be a disappointment for her. Could be seven different knockoffs of the flaggernuttenblat- including one by Ruth Posey- in her too cute Frankoma casserole pan.


Anyway if I ever cook anything that anybody can hold down I'm happy to give up the recipe. I also admit who I stole it from. When I want a recipe I try to be subtle in the request. I don't say- "Hey, that dish has potential. Gimme the recipe and I'll do it right." Instead I try to say something like "That was a great dutch oven breakfast hash. I really loved the texture and flavors. How did you make it so crispy?" Then he says "Canned fried onions. Here's the recipe." as he hands me a sheet with the recipe already printed on it. (Thanks Moose).
