Turkey Wellington: Holiday Elegance on a Budget
Beef Wellington has always been the star of a special occasion dinner, but a whole tenderloin can cost more than the rest of the meal. Turkey Wellington keeps everything that makes the classic special: an earthy mushroom duxelles layer, a savory wrap of ham, and a flaky golden crust. The trick is sous vide. Turkey breast from a whole bird, injected with butter and white wine, cooks fully in a 140°F water bath, so the 400°F oven only needs to brown the pastry. The result is juicy turkey, crisp pastry, and a lattice top that turns heads. Turkey Wellington is Part 1 of International Turkey Day. The rest of the bird travels too: Chinese glazed legs, herbes de Provence thighs, and Buffalo injected wings, so everyone at the table gets their favorite part. Part 2, International Turkey Parts, arrives November 6. Get the full recipe, video, and tips here: https://the-good-plate.com/turkey-wellington/
