Turkey stomachs are by-products. They have a rigid and fibrous structure, so it is important to cook them properly so that they are not only healthy, but also delicious. A long heat treatment, namely extinguishing, will help here. Turkey ventricles cooked according to this recipe are soft and delicious. They can perfectly diversify your menu. Stomachs will go well with any side dish - potatoes, buckwheat, stewed and fresh vegetables. In addition to these advantages, turkey ventricles have a low cost and the dish turns out to be quite budget.  I have cooked ventricles before, but chicken ones, turkey stomachs are larger in size and, as it seemed to me, a little softer. I liked the recipe, I will definitely cook more.

Note that the quality and taste of the finished dish largely depends on the proper defrosting of the ingredients. How to avoid mistakes and choose the best way, read the article about defrosting.

For cooking, it is better to use filtered or bottled water that is neutral to taste. If you use tap water, keep in mind that it can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste.

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.
