Christmas is always a busy time for kitchens, but an action plan for preparing yuletide culinary delights has forecast even longer usage hours for the cooking area.With sinks and taps likely to spend much of the day in overdrive, the Daily Mirror told Christmas dinner preparers that the first steps for a perfect turkey-based feast should start as early as 8.35am.Aiming for a 2pm turkey serving time, the newspapers Christmas dinner guide said that eager foodies should start preheating the oven at the crack of dawn and aim to get the bird cooking by 9.30am.The Mirror recommended getting potatoes and vegetables at least partly cooked early on, with the turkey likely to dominate oven space subsequently and make it difficult to prepare side dishes.Once the bird is cooked, it was suggested that real perfectionists should insert a meat thermometer into its inner thigh, in order to ensure that it has reached the optimum temperature around 82 degrees. Boxing Day can be an even busier time in the kitchen, with washing up often clogging up sinks but using a sink waste disposal unit like In-Sink-Erators Batch Feed 78 model could help.Its 0.75 HP induction motor could help to grind up turkey carcasses and other difficult food waste, avoiding sending masses of food waste to landfill sites.ADNFCR-1321-ID-18402344-ADNFCR
