...where learning is always fun

Preparing a mouth-

watering holiday meal is a

monumental task, but one

that can be simplified easily

to avoid a meal-time flop.

"Generally, the biggest

problem in kitchens is dull

knives. Beginning stages of

cooking start with cutting

raw food, and serving often

requires cutting and slicing.

When the knife is dull, the

beginning steps are onerous

and the ending stages are

awkward, and because you

have to press harder to make

the knife move through the

food, fingers are often cut.

"It follows then that a

sharp knife is critical for

preparing the meal and carv-

ing the bird. There is no

better holiday present than a

set of sharp knives and a

sharpener to keep them that

way," says Michael

Ruhlman, well-known au-

thor, food blogger, cook and

journalist.

Ruhlman and Che-

f'sChoice® leading manu-

facturer of quality electric

knife sharpeners, have

teamed up to present the

per fec t Thanksg iving

bird...from cooking to carv-

ing.

Sharp knives are not only

safer, they will help you

smoothly cut thin, even

slices without shredding the

meat. Fortunately, you don't

have to be an expert to put a

razor-sharp edge on your

knife. A sharpener such as

Chef'sChoice® EdgeSe-

lect® 120 can make sharp-

ening easy. The sharpener

uses 100 percent diamond-

coated disks (2.5 karats

worth of diamonds!) and a

polishing stage to create a

durable, arch-shaped edge in

seconds. Precision guides

eliminate guesswork for

predictable, professionally

sharp edges every time.

Tips For Your Holiday Turkey

FULLY INSURED

Lic.: Member of Massachusetts Arborist Association

and TCIA


Serves 10

1 (10- to 12-pound/4.5- to

5.5- kilogram) turkey

Kosher salt to taste

4 celery ribs, cut into large

chunks

1 Spanish onion, quartered

1/2 lemon, halved again

3 carrots cut into large

chunks

1 bunch thyme (optional)

1 bunch sage (optional)

1/2 cup/110 grams butter,

melted

1 cup dry white wine

2 cups turkey or chicken

stock, preferably

homemade, or water

3 tablespoons flour

1) About 4 hours before you

plan to start roasting, re-

move turkey from refrigera-

tor, rinse, pat dry, and let sit

at room temperature.

2) Preheat oven to 425° F

(or 400° F for convection).

3) Liberally salt interior and

jam 1/2 of the celery, 1/2 of

the onion, lemon and herbs

into bird's cavity. If you

wish, truss bird as you

would a chicken. Rain salt

evenly all over the bird.

4) Add remaining celery,

onion and carrot to pan.

Place bird in low-sided pan

(or elevated on rack in roast-

ing pan; you want plenty of

circulation around the bird)

and put in oven.

5) Roast at high temperature

for 20 minutes. Pour melted

butter evenly over bird and

lower temperature to 375° F

(or 350° F convection).

Continue to roast until the

breast reaches 155° F in 60

to 90 minutes, basting as

you wish.

6) Remove pan from oven.

Show off the bird to your

guests.

After the turkey is cooked,

slice through skin between

legs and breast. Then re-

move each leg at joint. Slice

down vertically through the

center of the breast.

7) The breast should still be

pink; if it looks cold and

raw, return the entire bird to

the oven for 10 minutes. Put

bird on cutting board and

remove each leg at joint.

8) Pour off all but a quarter

cup of fat and juices in the

pan, reserving some of the

fat to make a roux. Pour the

liquid over the roasted vege-

tables still in the pan. Bring

liquid to a simmer on the

stovetop, then return the

legs to the pan and place in

the oven.

9) Roast legs for an addi-

tional 45 to 60 minutes; if

longer than an hour, turn the

oven down to 200° F. The

legs will only get better with

time and can be left in the

oven for up to 4 additional

hours; don't worry about the

breast, we'll reheat in the

stock at the end.

10) Combine flour with re-

served turkey fat to make a

roux.

11) Remove legs and place

pan over high heat on stove-

top.

12) Carve dark meat from

drumsticks and thighs and

place in the hot stock in

roasting pan. Remove each

breast half from the turkey

(be careful not to tear the

skin). Don't worry if the

breast is a little pink; this

means it will be juicy as it

finishes cooking in the hot

stock.

Cut the breast crosswise

into 1/4 to 1/2 inch slices.

Transfer the pieces to the

stock pan. Turn burner to

high and bring stock to a

simmer. Whisk in roux, sim-

mer for a minute or two to

ensure that everything is hot

and the sauce thickens, then

serve.

By following these steps,

you can enjoy your family

and friends, knowing the

meal will be perfect.

Tips To Prepare Your Home For Cold Weather

With winter weather

comes the desire for a warm

and comfortable home.

1. Seal your home. Inspect

windows, doors and the

exterior of your home for

cracks or leaks. Caulk, patch

or weather-strip any areas

that might leak cold air and

make your heating system

work harder. Seal and insu-

late your ducts and replace

screens with storm windows

and storm doors.

2. Cover windows. Use

drapes and blinds to reduce

heat loss through windows.

However, windows with

direct sunlight may benefit

from having the blinds up

during daylight hours, as

sunlight can help heat the

space.

3. Clean gutters. Clogged

gutters and drains can form

ice dams that prevent your

drainage system from work-

ing properly and lead to

water seeping into your

home. Be certain that dirt

slopes away from your

house to ensure rain or snow

will drain away from the

house.

Falling leaves and dipping

temperatures signal the turn

of the season and with that

comes the need to prepare

your home for winter. Your

outdoor living space is no

exception; it's an area you

spent months enjoying with

summer barbecues and gath-

erings. All that foot traffic

wear and tear and direct

sunlight can take a toll on any

deck, but with a few easy tips,

you can safeguard this area of

your home and prepare it for

the harsh winter weather

ahead.

•Protect Your Deck-

cessories: Excess moisture

and freezing temperatures can

bring a host of problems for

the items in your outdoor

space, including furniture,

grills and planters. It's impor-

tant to guard these invest-

ments and make sure they

stay protected for years to

come.

For areas that experience

extreme weather, it's best to

store furniture and cushions

indoors to prevent snow accu-

mulation or cover them with a

water-resistant material to

prevent damage from the ele-

ments. For milder climates,

protect smaller outdoor

wooden items, such as garden

boxes, birdhouses and

wooden benches, by sealing

with Thompson's WaterSeal

Waterproofing Wood Protec-

tor-Clear Aerosol.

Before the first freeze, move

plants that can be easily trans-

planted indoors. Outdoor

planters that are too big to

bring inside can be wrapped

with a heavily insulated mate-

rial, like burlap, and moved to

an area of the space that will

allow them to still get enough

direct sunlight.

•Clean Your Grill: Thor-

oughly clean the racks of your

grill with a grill brush and

coat the burners and other

metal parts with cooking oil

to repel moisture and prevent

rust. If it's a gas grill, turn it

on and let the last of the gas

burn off. Remove the tank

from a propane grill and store

outdoors, away from the

house. Tape a plastic bag over

the gas line opening to keep

curious critters from nesting

there. No matter the grill type,

a heavy-duty vinyl cover

should keep it safe and dry all

winter long.

Each year, approximately

7 million pets enter U.S.

shelters. Unfortunately, 3

million of them are eutha-

nized-but you can help

change that.

Step 1: Test the waters

Before committing to

adopting your own dog,

volunteer to pet sit for a

friend or foster from a shel-

ter. You can care for a dog

while it grows or recovers

from illness or surgery.

Plus, you can help save lives

by freeing up space in a

shelter.

Step 2: Do your research

Find vet offices close to

home and your job, as well

as low-cost spay/neuter clin-

ics in case your dog isn't

already fixed. Check out

breed restrictions where you

live to ensure that when you

bring your new dog home,

there are no barriers to un-

conditional love.

Step 3: Make a plan

Plan a budget to make sure

your new dog gets what he

or she needs. These costs

can range from pet sitters to

training classes, and from

food and bowls to collars

and a leash. It's also impor-

tant to think about potential

vaccinations and microchips

to keep your new dog happy

and healthy. While loving

an adopted dog comes with

a cost, the lifetime of love in

return is invaluable.

Step 4: Choose your

companion

While it's impossible to

predict which dog will steal

your heart, it can be helpful

to research breeds ahead of

time that fit your lifestyle.

Consider things like energy

levels, grooming mainte-

nance required and the ideal

age of your companion be-

fore going to the shelter. For

example, a corgi's high en-

ergy is a great complement

to an outdoorsy lifestyle.

However, an older dog may

be a better fit for a low-key

environment. If your heart is

set on a purebred, you'll be

glad to know that about 25

percent of dogs in shelters

are purebred.

Welcoming an adoptable

dog into your home is much

more than just daydreaming

a b o u t p e t t i n g y o u r

neighbor's pup. When you

adopt, you not only save a

life, you also enrich your

own. By bringing home a

new best friend, you can be

a part of PetSmart Charities'

mission to end pet home-

lessness in a generation.

A favorite fall recipe sure

to wow any crowd is Pork

Sausage with Angry Or-

chard Grilled Onions and

Mustard. Cooking the sau-

sage in the cider infuses the

meat with apple flavor and

brings a subtle sweetness to

make this dish pop.

Pork Sausage with Angry

Orchard Grilled Onions

and Mustard

6 premade pork sausages

3 bottles Angry Orchard

Crisp Apple Hard Cider

10 garlic cloves

2 large yellow onions

2 tablespoons whole grain

mustard

2 tablespoons Dijon

mustard

2 tablespoons dry mustard,

rehydrated in 2

tablespoons Angry

Orchard

Soft hot dog or hoagie

buns

Heat a grill to medium

high. Pour 3 bottles Angry

Orchard Crisp Apple Cider

into a deep roasting pan and

add 10 garlic cloves and 2

large yellow onions sliced

into 1/2-inch rings. Bring to

a low boil right on the grill,

and cook until the onions

soften, about 15 minutes.

Add the sausages and

enough water to cover, then

bring the liquid to a simmer

and poach until the sausages

are cooked through, about

15 minutes. Remove the

sausages and onions to the

grill grate and cook just

until grill marked, about 4

minutes. Mix the whole

grain, Dijon and dry mus-

tards in a separate bowl.

Serve the sausages on soft

buns with the grilled onions,

poached garlic and cider

mustard.
