Giardiniera
★ 5.05If canning for long-term storage, seal filled jars with lids and rims and prepare a boiling water bath. Boil jars for 10 minutes. Carefully remove jars and allow to sit undistrubed for 24 hours before moving or packaging. Best if consumed within 6 months.
Only stuff the neck end of the turkey, just before cooking, and seal it by tucking in the skin. Make sure to allow enough room for stuffing to expand during cooking. Do not stuff the body cavity. Make sure you calculate the correct cooking time - as a guide, for every 500 g stuffing used, add an additional 10 minutes to the unstuffed turkey cooking time.
Swiss Rösti
★ 5.03To flip the rösti, remove the frying pan from the heat. Place a plate (or the lid if the pan has one) upside down over the frying pan using oven gloves to hold it firmly in position, then turn the pan upside down and wait for the rösti to drop onto the plate. Slide the rösti back into the pan using a spatula.
For best results, cut vegetables into pieces about the length of the spiralizer pusher. Use vegetables and fruit with a maximum diameter of 5 cm or cut with knife to fit through cutter feeder. Trim ends so the vegetables sit flat on the disc. To avoid crushing ingredients, or getting ingredient spirals tangled in the blade, it is recommended to use fruit and vegetables with a diameter of 5 cm The minimum length for ingredients processed with Spiralizer should measure approximately 5 cm, while the maximum length processed should measure approximately 10 cm. Keep these lengths in mind when shopping (e.g. look for longer beets or ensure long squash or cucumbers are cut in half before using).
In step 5, potatoes should be cooked through but still firm enough that a knife can pass easily through without mashing.
