traditional fruit cakes
It is necessary to test the cake before re-
moval from the oven. Use a fine warmed
skewer inserted into the centre of the
cake. If the skewer comes out clean, then
the cake is cooked.
• Do not attempt to make Christmas
cakes larger than the oven can cope
with, you should allow at least 25mm
(1 inch) space between the oven
walls and the tin.
• Always follow the temperatures rec-
ommended in the recipe.
• To protect a very rich fruit cake dur-
ing cooking, tie 2 layers of brown
paper around the tin.
• We recommend that the cake tin is
not stood on layers of brown paper,
as this can hinder effective circulation
of air.
• Do not use soft tub margarine for
rich fruit cakes, unless specified in
the recipe.
• Always use the correct size and
shape of tin for the recipe quantities.
Roast turkey
Roasting turkey involves cooking two
different types of meat - the delicate light
breast meat, which must not be allowed
to dry out, and the darker leg meat,
which takes longer to cook.
The turkey must be roasted long enough
for the legs to cook, so frequent bast-
ing is necessary. The breast meat can be
covered once browned.
• Always make sure that the turkey is
completely thawed and that the gib-
lets are removed before cooking.
• Turkey should be roasted at 200°C
for 20 minutes per 450g (1lb), plus
20 minutes, unless packaging advises
otherwise.
• The turkey can be open roasted,
breast side down, for half of the cook
time, and then turned over for the
remainder of the cooking time.
• If the turkey is stuffed, add 5 minutes
per 450g (1lb) to the cooking time.
• If roasting turkey covered with foil,
add 5 minutes per 450g (1lb) to the
cooking time.
To test if the turkey is cooked, push a
fine skewer into the thickest part of the
thigh. If the juices run clear, the turkey
is cooked. If the juices are still pink, the
turkey will need a longer cooking time.
