Our Bronze Turkeys

Although the sun is still shining (seemingly more this week then over the last couple of months!), the great British Summer is slowly drawing to a close. But even as Autumn approaches, we doubt that many people have been thinking about the festive season just yet, yet alone their Christmas turkey! However, here at Pipers Farm, we've been thinking about it for quite some time now - we've been rearing our free-range Bronze turkeys since May.

The length of time over which we grow our turkeys is quite unusual but we don't use any growth promoters. Our turkeys are fed on an entirely natural diet of cereals and have free roam of the cider orchards. Slowly growing turkeys to natural maturity develops by far the best taste and texture. It also allows us enough time at the end for us to hang the turkeys for three weeks, which adds to the depth of flavour that our customers love.

These photos were taken earlier in the week - they're very inquisitive creatures!

For some, Easter cooking is the perfect excuse to invite friends and family round and show off culinary talents.
For others however, the prospect of somehow creating a delicious Easter meal is a little daunting! I definitely fall into the latter category but decided that this year I will really give it a go! I have only volunteered as I have a trick up my sleeve- for Easter lunch I am going to serve Pipers Farm Simplest Turkey. It is a foolproof way to create the perfect Easter turkey but with minimal effort- it cooks in just an hour!

It is all there- white and brown meat, delicious apricot and hazelnut stuffing, sausages wrapped in bacon, and a pot of turkey stock to make a fabulous gravy at the end. I'm not sure even I can go wrong, but wish me luck anyway!
