About Turkey, back, from whole bird, meat and skin, with added solution, roasted
This poultry cut comes from the rear section of a turkey, including both meat and skin, and is often prepared with a solution to enhance moisture and flavor during cooking. When roasted, it offers a rich, savory taste with a tender texture. A 100-gram serving provides about 205 calories, making it a moderate-calorie protein source. It's particularly notable for its high protein content—25.8 grams per serving—which supports muscle maintenance and repair. The fat content is 11.4 grams, with some coming from the skin, which also contributes to its juiciness and flavor. This cut contains no carbohydrates or fiber, making it suitable for low-carb and ketogenic diets.
In the kitchen, this versatile cut is often used in hearty meals like roasted turkey dinners, stews, and casseroles. Its combination of meat and skin makes it ideal for dishes where moisture retention is important, such as slow-cooked meals or braises. For those mindful of fat intake, the skin can be removed before cooking or eating to reduce calories and saturated fat. Nutritionally, it's a good source of essential nutrients like B vitamins, selenium, and zinc, which support energy metabolism and immune health. Whether served as a centerpiece or incorporated into recipes, this cut offers a balance of flavor, nutrition, and culinary flexibility.
