Questions about Turkey bologna
Does turkey bologna need cooking before you eat it?
No: it is sold cooked and can be eaten cold straight from the pack. You can also heat it in a frying pan until piping hot, or add it to a dish near the end so it does not dry out.
How do you fry turkey bologna without it curling up?
Make a few shallow cuts around the edge of each slice, then fry in a lightly oiled pan over medium heat for about 2 minutes per side. For crisp edges, use fairly thin slices and avoid crowding the pan.
How long does turkey bologna keep once opened?
Keep it covered or sealed in the fridge and use it within 3–5 days of opening. Freeze slices in a sealed bag, with baking paper between them so you can separate what you need; thaw in the fridge.
What goes well with turkey bologna?
Use it in a toasted sandwich with mustard, cheese and pickles, or pair it with eggs and fried potatoes. Diced slices also work in macaroni salad or folded into an omelette.
Can you use turkey bologna instead of ham?
Yes, sliced turkey bologna works in sandwiches, toasties and omelettes wherever you would use cooked ham. It has a softer, more finely emulsified texture and a distinct bologna seasoning, so it is less like a firm-cut ham.
Is turkey bologna lower in energy than pork bologna?
Yes: turkey bologna has 209 kcal per 100 g, compared with 247 kcal in pork bologna. Its protein content is also lower: 11 g against 15.3 g per 100 g.
Is turkey bologna high in salt?
It is salty: a 28 g serving contains 300 mg of sodium. Its strong savoury flavour means you can often use a few slices to season a sandwich or chopped filling without adding much extra salt.
Can you freeze turkey bologna?
Yes. Freeze it in small portions, separated with baking paper, and use within about 1–2 months for the best texture; thaw it in the fridge and eat it promptly. The slices may be slightly softer after thawing.
