Hi Guys!
OK, just a teeny, tiny little post today. Because I forgot to say something yesterday when I did the Cranberry Butter.
Sometime next week I'm going to show you how to make After-Thanksgiving Turkey Soup. It's fantastic. It makes good use of leftovers and here's the clincher . . . it will change your life. However, to make this life-changing soup, you need a turkey carcass. That's right. The greasy, ugly, pile of bones that used to be your Thanksgiving turkey is actually a treasure in disguise.
So don't throw it away tomorrow, OK? Stick it in a ziplock or wrap it in plastic and put it in your freezer. Also, don't clean it perfectly. Those tiny little pieces of meat that are still clinging to the bone are gold. Gold, I tell you!
You'll thank me. I promise.
i served the caffeine addicts today, so i'm not cooking this afternoon. therefore, i will not have any carcass to freeze. thanks for thinking of me though. will look forward to seeing what life-changing stuff occurs and plan ahead more next year.
ReplyDeletebtw, thankful for you today!
OK I just had Thanksgiving today ( had to work Thursday) and put that beautiful carcass in the freezer. Guess it won't be going to the trash Teusday
ReplyDeleteMmmm, can't wait to see your recipe. =) Since we had Thanksgiving at my sister's in Kentucky and added to that we had 2 chickens and a ham instead of a turkey, I won't be able to try it . . . at least not immediately. But remind me next year!
