I have a DVD of it. If I had your address I could lend it to you Or you can
buy your own from Amazon.

I like them all - as well as the not commonly available in stores - black
walnuts (very different from thin shell (English) walnuts) and hicory nuts

Nasty is nasty. Fried nasty is just hot nasty.  Bv)=

RH> True, we got a boneless turkey breast and baked it last week. Definatly

The problem there, as I see it, is the breast alone tends to dry out
and that's both a texture AND a falvour thing. I've done turkey breast as
a stand-alone and still had left-overs.  Bv)=

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Buttermilk-Brined Turkey Breast
Categories: Five, Poultry, Dairy
     Yield: 5 Servings

     2 c  Buttermilk
    33 g  (2 tb) fine sea salt
 2 1/2 lb Half turkey breast; on or
          - off the bone

 One to two days before you plan to cook, place
 buttermilk and salt in a gallon-size resealable plastic
 bag and stir to dissolve salt. Place turkey breast in
 the bag and seal carefully, expelling the air. Squish
 the bag to distribute buttermilk all around the turkey,
 place on a rimmed plate, and refrigerate for 24 to 36
 hours. If you're so inclined, you can turn the bag
 periodically so every part of the turkey gets marinated,
 but that's not essential.

 Two hours before you plan to start cooking, remove the
 turkey from the plastic bag and scrape off as much
 buttermilk as you can without being obsessive. Discard
 buttermilk, set the breast on a rimmed plate and bring
 it to room temperature.

 Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and set
 @ 425oF/218oC. Place breast skin-side up on a rimmed
 baking sheet lined with a wire rack or parchment paper.

 Place baking sheet on the prepared oven rack and roast
 the turkey until an instant-read thermometer inserted
 into the deepest part of the breast without touching
 bone registers 150oF/66oC, about 40 minutes for a
 boneless breast or 50 minutes for a bone-in breast.
 (You may want to tent the breast with aluminum foil
 if it's darkening too quickly.)

 Transfer turkey to a cutting board or platter and allow
 to rest at least 15 minutes before carving.

 UDD NOTE: Use store-bought buttermilk for this. "Real"
 butermink is not qs successful in this instance.
