Demo chef

I had the pleasure of a new undertaking last weekend. I worked at the Maytag Store in Redmond as their demo chef during the kick-off for their holiday sales.
They sell a lot of beautiful, high-end appliances, like Jenn- air, which is what I cooked on all day. Oooh, sparkly stainless steel.
The kitchen was a real, working kitchen with four different stovetops, four ovens, microwave, dishwasher, sink, etc...
I used the convection oven to roast a turkey breast and it worked wonderfully. Very beautiful, even coloring on the bird. Very moist interior for not being brined. Not overcooked. People, DO NOT overcook your turkey. Remember, it continues to cook during the standing time with the temperature rising another 5 to 10 degrees. Figure this into your calculations and you will have tasty, juicy turkey.
I also made the roasted acorn squash recipes, previously posted, to raves reviews. A bread dressing on the side with apples and Cajun spices. A pear cranberry crisp with fresh ginger and a three cheese fondue ( with potato dippers) to show off the holding capabilities of one of the stoves.
The staff at the store couldn't have been nicer! And it was really fun visiting with the customers and talking cooking.
