Electric Knife Does The Job
Now that the holidays are behind us, did you find yourself struggling when carving the ham or turkey with a knife? The slices were not clean, all shredded or had the looks of someone had butchered the ham or turkey. I had fixed a roasted turkey for our Christmas Eve gathering and my husband remembered that we had an electric knife to do all the work.
The electric knife definitely made the carving job a whole lot easier compared to a carving knife plus it made the slices neater. The electric knife has 2 serrated blades that clip together. Once turned on, the blades slide back and forth to provide the sawing action. We do not have to limit ourselves to just a turkey or ham when using an electric knife. You can use it for slicing other meats as well.
Carving the Roasted Turkey
First of all, I would like to wish everyone a safe & blessed Happy New Year. Hope your holidays were exciting & able to spend them with your family & friends. We had hosted our Christmas Eve gathering with all of my side of the family gathering our our home. Our tradition is that everyone brings a dish whether it’s meat, vegetable, snacks or dessert.
This year I fixed a roasted turkey. I had injected a butter flavor marinade in the turkey prior to cooking it. Since I had purchased a Nuwave Infared Oven, I wanted to try it out. It worked great. It took about 3 hrs to cook a 13 pound turkey. My husband used an electric knife to carve it especially the breast meat. Using the electric knife made the carving job go a lot quicker than if he had used a sharp knife & everyone enjoyed eating the turkey.
