every year my parents make an AMAZING turkey for thanksgiving. people always ask if we do asian food or we keep it traditional. well, with my gradual input throughout the years, it's morphed into a traditional thanksgiving but we make asian turkey and it is to die for!!
what is this amazing turkey you ask? well mama bee and papa bee started marinating the turkey on SUNDAY. i took all these pics to show the marinade/process but then had to reformat my phone so those pics are gone :( but i'll take some on thanksgiving and post in a few days.
to make the marinade, my mom threw in her food processor a LOT of green onions (like 5 or 6 bunches), a chopped onion, and a handful of garlic cloves. let it go for a bit until it turns saucy. then in her marinade, she adds in oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar and miso paste.
so the turkey is in the fridge and gets flipped over every few hours to ensure every part of the bird gets the yummy marinade. then the day of, my parents brush honey on the turkey while it's in the oven so even the skin is super tasty! i dont' care if it's not good for you :)
i am drooling just typing about it!! pics to come on thurs :)
