I could tell which was the frozen turkey on sight alone. How? The fresh one had its legs sticking up- it had never been forced into a vaccuum seal plastic bag, allowing it to maintain that less compact and regular shape.
@ethancampbell215

I’m a bit of a novice when it comes to knowing what impact different ingredients have so if anyone can explain why sea salt is ‘better’ than table salt?
@DickWigglin
January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
I guessed the correct bird simply by comparing the breasts. The bird on Barry's side was flatter, which tells me it was thawed. The one on Mike's side had a pointed breast.

I am confused… there is a difference between table and sea salt? 😅 I always use sea salt – just different sizes 🙂
@philoctetes_wordsworth
January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
11:55 I was right: I knew the fresh bird by the shape of its body. The one in front of Mike has unnaturally large breast meat. Listening to them talk about the product, I was certain I was right. The fresh bird was allowed a normal farm turkey’s life. The other was bred to be deformed, and mature quickly, with very little natural movement or exercise in it’s short lifetime.

5:51 I use finely ground sea salt as my table salt, and flaky yum yum for finishing.
@dionlindsay2
January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
They are funny boys over the salt. I spend £2 on sea salt every six months and that's all the salt I use. Spending 13 times what I need to for most of my salt use would be silly (even then not insane) if there were larger amounts of money involved. But I don't agree with being told I'm doing something insane when spending £0.33 pm means I only need to buy one kind of salt. There is method to my non-madness.

Table salt is literal industrial leftovers, sea salt and rock salt are the only salt (NaCl). Do we want salt or do we want absurdly cheap ferrocyanide infused salty god knows what?
@christophernorton6050

There is no way in he'll I would ever spend that much money on a bird! I don't even spend that much on a month's groceries!

Sea salt pasta water has a better taste to regular salt pasta water. Using table salt in pasta water is insane

In America, I often hear celebrity chefs speak of the larger flakes of kosher salt. Would this me comparable to sea salt in the UK? I’m also asking because sea salt is also an option at the grocery store.
@Raina111111

I could tell which cheese board was cheaper because one of the cheeses on the cheaper board was heart shaped. Cheese is one of those items where the 'premium' versions don't generally do novelty shapes. The product is expected to stand on its own as a sign of quality.

Salt is salt is salt. There is no difference between "sea salt" and "table salt"

@jf76
January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
I absolutely agree. If you can, spend more on the hero of the dish for a once a year celebration, and less on the other sides (but ideally all well sourced and cooked with pleasure). A turkey is huge and will feed many – if you know how they are raised I think most will opt for the well raised ones. Others can be jammed in crowded dark barns, injected with things to seem juicier, bought in frozen lumps. Don't go for that. Once a year, don't spend on socks for gifts, spend on a delicious special supper to be shared by all together.

Maybe y'all have already covered this, but I'd love an explanation between kosher salt vs sea salt vs table salt vs Himalayan salt, specifically uses for each. 😁

So would pasta cooked in sea salt water differ in taste from table salt water boiled pasta?
@Smallpotato1965
January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
Yeah, no, a hundred quide on a bird is ridiculous and pretentious. You don't HAVE to buy the cheapest bird in the shop, but I'm sure there are better options than some bijou, hoiteetoitee, Hyacinth Bucket of a bird!
@noddybebetrain9896
January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
This is why british food is bad, even for chefs who live in an island they think sea salt is only for special uses.
Sea salt is not an option, it's the default. Table salt is cheap, low quality salt, that the rich want the poors to use while they enjoy the good stuff.

It's interesting about the Turkey. Neither sells well in Australia these days. Ham is still popular as well as seafood.

The "once a year: statement jumped out at me, and yes, my family one had Turkey one year, at Thanksgiving, a U.S. Holiday. For Christmas we ar4e split in the U.S. some to Turkey (again) some to Ham, and some, including my family, have Prime Rib.

The turkey was easy being in a bag the legs would be down visual que rather than in the air fresh one
@unknownprofile8909
January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
honestly ive never liked turkey, and im convinced everyone else lying about liking it since they drown it in gravy and sides just as much as me. so i say save 20$ dont buy a turkey at all, and buy more of the sides everyone is there for anyways.

OK, this is weird. I hate the taste of fish, if it tastes remotely like fish, and it almost always does….Hate…HATE…But, most of the time, smoked salmon does not taste like fish and I quite enjoy it.
@TikkaMasalaa1
January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
Yes of course you can add lots of veg and starch and cheesy great sides and desserts to the meal. but no no Ebbers, 100quid for a bird is nuts. Mind you Im american but most people still over cook or under cook their birds and that is just a waste of time and money with the right supervision, gives a 25 dollar bird, when on sale of course, the best chance of becoming a crowd pleaser with gravy!!!
@RealJohnnyAngel
January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
Is English table salt not Iodized? Because iodine gives off acrid flavors when cooked, so I use pickling salt which is pure bulk Sodium Chloride.

January 3, 2024 at 7:48 am
Well the frozen one is clearly the one with the legs tucked in.
If you're freezing a turkey, you want to be able to pack them tightly together.
Mention of husbandry reminded me that all commercial turkey breeds are so malformed (giant breasts) that they can't even reproduce and have to be manually inseminated.
Although none of that matters – Turkey is the worst of all meats. It's solely for people who think Chicken "tastes way too exciting".
