The “Hot Brown” – Kentucky’S Favorite Bourbon Absorbent

As I joked close inward the intro, for something to live on called a “Hot Brown,” in addition to nevertheless teach in addition to hence wildly popular, is a truthful will to only how amazingly delicious this genuinely is. 

Invented at the Brown Hotel inward Louisville, Kentucky, to help tardily nighttime partygoers proceed going, this hot turkey gratin may live on my all-time favorite, fork in addition to knife sandwich.

And for something that seems in addition to hence decadent, I don’t genuinely honour it to live on all that heavy of a meal. Of course, that could live on the bourbon talking. I guess yous could utilization milk instead of cream to lighten this up, but unless you’re going to firstly eating these several times a week, I mean value yous should stick to the master formula.

I’m certain this would live on okay amongst approximately thickly sliced turkey from the deli, but roasting your ain is pretty easy, in addition to yous tin orbit the axe utilization the leftovers for a few less extravagant sandwiches. Either way, I genuinely produce promise yous orbit this Kentucky classic a motility soon. Enjoy!


Ingredients for the sauce (enough for four pocket-sized or two giant portions):
2 tablespoons salted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 loving cup Pecorino Romano cheese, addition to a greater extent than for grating on top
pinch of freshly dry reason nutmeg
salt, freshly dry reason dark pepper, in addition to cayenne to gustation

For the turkey (enough for four portions):
1 teaspoon fossil oil or butter to grease baking dish
2 pound boneless turkey breast
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon herbs de Provence, or other dried/fresh herbs of your choice

For each Hot Brown:
2 pieces white bread, toasted
6 ounces roast turkey thorax (3 thick slices)
3 slices of tomato
enough prepared cheese sauce to cover

- Finish nether a depression broiler, or inward 475 F. oven until the sauce is bubbly in addition to browned, in addition to the bacon is cooked. To cheat, yous tin orbit the axe receive bacon crisp separately, in addition to only transcend the finished dish, but I mean value it tastes ameliorate if yous chocolate-brown amongst the bacon on top.
