How to Garnish and Serve Your Turkey
Planning to serve up a truly showstopping centrepiece at your festive feast? Well we've consulted our experts, and here are their top tips on the best ways to garnish and serve a stunning turkey this Christmas.
Our tips
1. Regularly baste your turkey to give it a beautiful golden sheen. Let it rest for at least 30 minutes before serving, then transfer it to a serving platter.
2. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Herbs like fresh thyme, sage, bay leaves, and rosemary look lovely when bunched together and placed around the bird. When plating, group any garnishes closely together without leaving space between them.
3. For a pop of colour, dot around seasonal fresh produce like cranberries, red onions, clementines, and lemons. Citrus fruits look especially stunning if you lightly caramelise their cut edge with a chef’s blowtorch!
