ORANGE-MAPLE BUTTERNUT SQUASH MASH

Steps:

• Cut the bulbous bottom of the squash off from the long top. Split the bottom in half through the root end and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Cut the long part in half lengthwise. Peel or cut off the rind, then cut the flesh into 1-inch pieces.
• Add the squash to a 4-quart pot, add enough water to cover, bring to a boil, and cook, covered, over high heat, about 18 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon salt and cover. Lower the heat to medium and cook until the squash is tender when pierced with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes more. (There should be no resistance, but the squash should not fall apart. Be attentive: It can overcook very quickly and absorb too much water, making your mash soupy.)
• Meanwhile, toast the coriander in a small dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring often, until aromatic, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.
• Strain the squash in a colander. Return it to the pot, add the butter and mash with a potato masher until smooth. Add the zest, 1 tablespoon of the maple syrup, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the toasted coriander and salt to taste and stir to combine. When serving, drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon syrup over the top and dust with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon coriander.

MAPLE BUTTER

Steps:

• In a deep saucepan, boil the maple syrup with the oil, until it reaches about 235°F (112ºC) on medium-high heat. Monitor the temperature using a fast-reading digital probe thermometer like this one from Thermoworks.
• Immediately, transfer the boiled syrup to your stand mixer bowl, and drop the bowl into a big ice bath to cool the syrup down to about 60°F (15-16ºC). Then let the syrup warm back up to room temperature.
• With the paddle attachment, beat the syrup on low for a very, very long time (like 30 minutes even) until it turns opaque and the color of sesame butter (the texture on your tongue when you sample it will go from syrupy at the beginning of the process to very finely powdery).
• Quickly transfer the maple butter to a large jar and store in the fridge.
• If the maple butter separates at any point, just give it a good stir before using.

MAPLE, BACON AND ORANGE ROASTED TURKEY BREAST

Steps:

• Butter -- Mix the thyme with the butter and maple syrup, salt and pepper and set to the side.
• Orange and Onions -- Just set those on the bottom on a small roasting pan. I actually just used my 9x9 square baking pan, but a small roasting pan would or even your 13x9 will work. Depends on the size of your turkey. Smaller the better for me.
• Turkey -- Make sure to let your turkey set out 30 minutes to take the chill off while you heat up the oven to 400. Then rub the turkey well with you butter, maple, thyme, salt and pepper mix all over.
• Now just set your turkey on the orange and onions. They make a great natural rack for the turkey and will flavor the gravy.
• Bacon -- Just drape the bacon slices over the turkey, trying to cover as much as you can. a couple slices I cut in half to make sure everything was covered.
• Gravy -- Just add the chicken broth, or stock whatever you have, apple cider and orange juice to the bottom of the pan. Throw in the rosemary sprigs and bay leaf.
• Bake -- Just pop it in the oven and bake according to directions. Mine took about 2 hours. I baked mine 15 minutes at 400 and then reduced the temperature to 350 and cooked until the internal temp reached 160, removed and covered. By the time I served it was 165 and juicy.
• Gravy -- Transfer your baking dish to the stove on medium heat. Remove the onions and oranges and then add the white wine and cook just a minute. I make a slurry which is just corn starch and a little water and slowly add a little at a time to the warm gravy. Make sure the heat it on medium and only add a little and wait until the gravy thickens. Keep adding a little at a time until it gets to the thickness you like. Now I take a couple of the orange slizes, since they have cooled a bit and squeeze some of the juice in the gravy. This gives great flavor. Strain the gravy and serve. It is wonderful.
• Serve -- I remove the bacon and slice. I remove the bacon but keep a couple onion and orange slices from the gravy and of course add some fresh rosemary to let them know what the sauce was inches Well you know the rest. Stuffing, spuds, vegetables, cranberry. Anything you want. This is just a great moist turkey with a little flavor twist and it can be made for a nice weekend dinner. Mine served 4 people.
• Dessert - I caramelized some pears and apples in brown sugar, rum and pumpkin spice and then just serve over vanilla ice cream.
• . It will immediate thicken. Add on the st.
• Mixed the turkey with the butter maple syrup, salt and pepper and rubbed all over the breast. Sliced the orange and onion and put on a small 9x9 pan and set the breast on top of that. Add the broth, cider, orange juice and rosemary and then draped the bacon over the breast. Baked 425 for 15, then down to 350 until 155 or 160 removed and covered with foil. Gravy, I removed the orange and onion and just added 1/4 cup white wine and thickened with corn starch.

ORANGE AND MAPLE GLAZED TURKEY

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a roasting pan. Mix the salt and pepper together in a small bowl, and set aside.
• Stir together the butter, thyme, and sage in a small bowl. Place the turkey into the prepared roasting pan, and separate the skin from the breast through the neck cavity. Spread the butter mixture evenly over the breast, then press the skin back down on top of the butter. Brush the outside of the turkey with the olive oil, then sprinkle with the salt and pepper mixture. Whisk together the orange juice, maple syrup, and half of the chicken broth, and set aside.
• Bake the turkey in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 3 hours. Baste every 30 minutes with the maple syrup mixture. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the turkey from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
• Once the turkey has rested, remove it from the roasting pan, and place it onto a serving platter. Place the roasting pan onto the stove, and stir in the remaining chicken broth along with the vermouth. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Scrape the bottom of the roasting pan well to dissolve the browned bits, then simmer over medium-low heat until the gravy thickens, about 10 minutes total. Strain before serving with the turkey.
