Convert it
  1. Choose moist interior turkey and remove skin, browned edges, gristle, and bone.
  2. Blend turkey with enough warm gravy to flow, then pass it through a fine sieve.
  3. Blend potato and carrot separately with stock until each is completely smooth and free-flowing; sieve both.
  4. Adjust each component to Level 3 and confirm each one with the syringe and fork-drip tests.
  5. Spoon the three components into a bowl in broad swirls. Do not leave separate lumps or add garnish.
EquipmentHigh-speed blender, fine sieve, 10 mL syringe
SLP tipTest every component separately before plating; the thinnest part determines whether the whole serving is safe.

Before serving: run the spoon tilt and fork drip tests on the finished plate. Recipes guide you to a texture. Only the test confirms it.
