I've never done this before so have been looking at methods on line. Now, I am totally confused so does anyone have a tried and tested method please.

And, daft question I know, but do you rinse it afterwards?

This was quite popular a few years ago when Nigella did t on TV - they even did it on Gavin and Stacey. I stick to my Delia Smith method of traditional cooking - I dont cook with salt anyway sorry cant help but i hope you enjoy your turkey kittylester.

Talk about late onset dyslexia I read that as binning the turkey!

Alongside the out-of-date pastry, I assume?

The birds will enjoy any out of date pastry! Most of my pastry leftovers go to them, whether they’ve been in the freezer for months, waiting to be Usefully Used Up, or not.
They never last more than about 5 minutes in the garden.
