The Hand-Me-Down Recipes Podcast

A Turkey with Heart: Herbs, Spice, and Slow Cooking


Listen Later

In this episode, Kathie talks with Violet from Right at Home about her family’s cherished Thanksgiving turkey recipe—rooted in Amish and Mennonite tradition and passed down through years of memory and practice. This turkey is deeply seasoned, slow-roasted, and surprisingly simple, relying on an abundant blend of herbs, a touch of curry, and thoughtful techniques that keep the meat juicy and flavorful.

If you’ve ever felt intimidated by roasting a whole turkey, this conversation will leave you feeling grounded and prepared. We talk about planning ahead, why cutting slits in the meat matters, how to baste without stress, and the quiet joy of bringing heritage recipes to the holiday table.
