Smoked Breast

Smoked breast of turkey is cured and wood-smoked pectoral meat—ready to slice cold or warm gently. Smoke and salt dominate the mild turkey flavour. Avoid further high-heat cooking that dries the already-cooked muscle; glaze or steam to reheat. Slice thin for boards and sandwiches, or warm under a glaze. Further high heat only dries it. Balance the salt and smoke with sweet or acidic sides.
