Removing the giblets and neck from a turkey is an important step in preparing it for cooking. Giblets are the internal organs of the turkey, including the heart, liver, and gizzard. The neck is also removed during this process.
There are several reasons why it is important to remove the giblets and neck from a turkey before cooking. First, the giblets can contain bacteria that can cause foodborne illness. Second, the giblets can make the turkey taste bitter. Third, the neck can be a choking hazard, especially for children.
