Rub the inside of the turkey with salt and rinse with cold water one or two times
Dry the cavity
Leave the turkey to marinate for a day in the herb mixture, which is made with all the ingredients
Turn the turkey occasionally, but the breast should remain in the marinade for a longer time
The next day, cut the neck open and wash with cold water to remove any bones
Wash the remaining giblets and, in a pot, cover them with 4 cups of water, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, herbs, and peas
Cook over low heat
Remove from the broth and reserve it
Chop the giblets
Prepare the stuffing: fry the bacon in a pan
Drain the grease
Add the onion, herbs, and tomatoes
When everything is golden brown, cover with the reserved broth and let it simmer
Strain through a sieve, combine the giblets and peas
Mix well with a fork
Season to taste
Let it cool and stuff the turkey, sewing the opening
Brush very well with melted butter and glaze with a little of the herb mixture cooked down and the juices that form in the roasting pan
This turkey takes 3-5 hours to roast.
