Light in Flavour

When you want a delicate sweetness in your baking, using White Sugar or Caster Sugar can provide a subtle sweetness that enhances the other flavours without overpowering them.

Fruity

Using fruit can add a natural, fruity sweetness to baking, creating a refreshing, light flavour or adding sweet tartness. White Sugar or Caster Sugar in baking, allows the flavour of the fruit to shine and Jam Setting Sugar preserves the taste of fruit in vibrant jams.

Nutty

Coconut Sugar bring a subtle nuttiness to baked goods, elevating the taste with a mild, natural sweetness and pairs beautifully with tropical flavours.

Spiced

Using sugars with spices like cinnamon, ginger, licorice or chai can lend a warm, aromatic sweetness to baking.

Caramel

Utilising brown sugars or incorporating caramelised sugar syrups creates a richer, deeper flavor profile, adding a hint of caramel or toffee-like taste.

Chocolate

Chocolate adds a decadent richness to baked goods with its deep cocoa flavour, making it perfect for indulgent treats. Try adding a deep flavoured Brown Sugar to the mix for enhanced chocolate flavour.

Method
Preheat oven to 190°C. : Syrup
Boil apple cider and syrup in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced to 1/2 cup (about 20 minutes). Remove from heat and mix in 1/2 of the thyme and marjoram and all of the lemon zest. Add the butter and whisk until melted. Add salt and pepper to taste then cover and refrigerate until cold.
Turkey : Wash and dry turkey. Place oven rack in the lowest third of oven. Place turkey in a large roasting pan. Slide hand under skin of the breast to loosen breast skin. Rub 1/2 cup of the syrup mixture under the skin of the breast. You can stuff the turkey at this point (optional). Rub 1/4 cup of the syrup mixture over the outside of the turkey. With kitchen string tie legs of turkey together loosely. Arrange the chopped onion, chopped celery and chopped carrot around the turkey in the roasting pan. Sprinkle the remaining thyme and marjoram over the vegetables and pour the chicken stock into the pan.
Roast turkey at 190°C for 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 170°C, and cover turkey with foil. Continue to roast until very tender, basting occasionally with pan juices. About 3 to 4 hours unstuffed, 4 to 5 hours stuffed. Pierce the leg joint with a fork, if the juices run clear or faintly pink then the turkey is done.
Transfer turkey to a platter and cover with foil. Reserve pan mixture for gravy.
Gravy : Strain pan juices into a measuring cup. Spoon fat from juices. Add enough chicken stock to make 3 cups. Transfer liquid to a heavy saucepan and bring to a boil. Mix 3 Tbsp of the reserved syrup mixture with the flour in a small bowl to from a paste. Whisk paste into broth mixture. Add the chopped fresh thyme and bay leaf. Boil until reduced and thickened slightly, whisking occasionally. Season with salt and ground pepper to taste.
