Words of wisdom: Don't wait until the day-of to thaw your turkey. As a general rule of thumb, you'll need at least 24 hours for every five pounds you plan to thaw. So, if you've got a ten-pound turkey, it's going to take a day and a half for it to defrost thoroughly.
The best method to thawing your turkey is in the refrigerator. Note: that means your bird — or any other type of meat — should not be thawed on your counter. According to the USDA:. A fridge's constant, cold temperature slows the growth of harmful bacteria and helps your turkey thaw evenly. If you're crunched for time, and as a last resort, give the turkey a cold water bath. Make sure to secure it in a leak-proof plastic bag to prevent surrounding bacteria from attacking it and to change the water every 30 minutes.
Expect to wait 30 minutes for every pound you plan to thaw. Like a good or cheap! While lavishing it in your choice of herbs and salt, make sure to season it both inside and out. As The Kitchn notes, the salt breaks down the proteins in meat, tenderizing it and making it easier to chew. Brining and applying a spice rub to your turkey is an easy way to make it flavorful and tender, too.
With a plate height at the exterior wall as high as yours, it is important that all the can lights be evenly and correctly spaced and aimed toward the counters and floor, depending on their location.
All us Houzzers would find it very helpful to have a pic of the ceilings in the kitchen and the dining areas. Your kitchen should be viewed holistically in terms of how you light it. General cans at the ceiling, accent at the island pendants and task at the counters under cabt.
I think the pendants are one issue of the three that need attention for you to get the most out of your lighting re-work. In terms of the Dining, again you should consider some sloped cans in a grid pattern. I can't tell from the pics if this area has some already, but with pics of the ceilings, you will get some very specific opinions on how to best address your lighting in these areas, and which fixtures should be on dimmers, as well.
Happy Houzzing. Still needing help with this. Any suggestions? Thank you so much for the feed back and the link. I am very appreciative!
