BarbaraJ Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 We are at home for christmas day but then out for boxing day, sat and sunday, so will not eat anymore turkey. Whats the best way to freeze it, sliced, sliced with gravy, whole breast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I've never cooked a turkey in my life but I've eaten plenty so my guess would be sliced into meal sized portions, then you can just take out what you want to use, freeze your gravy seperately. Depends what you're going to use it for. Jamie made a gorgeous Chinese crispy turkey salad thingy on his prog the other night which he wrapped in pancakes (like crispy duck) so I hope we have leftovers so I can make it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 If we have leftover chicken or turkey and aren't going to get time to use it I slice any breast meat, pull off any darker meat, completely pick the carcass and then twist the carcass into two pieces. I freeze all these components separately - breast meat, dark meat, and then bits and bones together ready to make stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Webmuppet Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 I slice the white meat and freeze it (ready for sarnis) ,boil up the carcass and strip it and then freeze it ready for soup ( as my Gran would say - you can make perfectly good soup from that). We have a crown and the legs are frozen ready for curry or pie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
