You may have decided that you want to taste a turkey that's closer to what our ancestors found running around the countryside, and you've ordered a heritage turkey for your table. If you're wondering how to cook this much leaner bird to get the best result from your considerable investment, Kookoolan Farms is offering a series of instructional classes on marinating, brining and using spice rubs to get the most out of your bird.
Each class will feature Chef Gareth Mark of Stumptown Savory who will prepare the turkey and side dishes, provide recipes to students and, best of all, the class will sit down for a full dinner including a wine pairing and dessert. Each three-hour class is $65 with a choice of three regional themes, Southern, Southwest and Northwest, and will take place from 6 to 9 pm at Kookoolan Farms, 15713 Highway 47 in Yamhill, Oregon. Reservations can be made by calling the farm at 503-730-7535.
