There Is chef In one Of the large hotels
Of New York who Is famous for his roast
turkey. Turkey under his hands comes
out not only a beautiful brown, but Of a
delicious flavor quite different from any
other turkey that ever was seen. The
turkey meat IL positively rich, and even
the white meat that Is generally dry has
a moist, spicy taste.
This is his recipe for roast turkey, which
he kindly consented to give the household
