Tipps

Choosing Turkey Breast

Choose a fresh turkey breast for this recipe. Frozen turkey can be higher in histamine due to the length of time it is stored. Avoid pre-seasoned turkey as it can contain ingredients that are high in histamine.

Preparing Root Vegetables

Make sure to cut your root vegetables into similar-sized pieces. This ensures they cook evenly. If some pieces are much larger than others, they may not cook through at the same time.

Checking Turkey Doneness

Use a meat thermometer to ensure the turkey is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach at least 165°F (74°C) at the thickest part of the breast.

Resting Turkey

Allowing the turkey to rest before slicing is an important step. It lets the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a moister and more flavorful turkey.

Storing Leftovers

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 1-2 days to ensure they remain low in histamine.

Serving Suggestions

This dish is a complete meal on its own, but it also pairs well with a simple green salad or a side of low-histamine grains, like quinoa or rice.

Consume Fresh

For a low histamine diet, it's recommended to consume the dish as soon as it's cooked. Leftovers can develop higher histamine levels.
