Set oven @ 325ºF/165ºC. Arrange oven rack so turkey will fit on the middle shelf without touching top shelf. Rinse turkey and remove the giblets. Reserve neck, gizzard and heart for Giblet Gravy. Discard liver. Pat turkey dry with paper towels. Lightly grease bottom of a large roasting pan with vegetable oil. Season all over with salt and pepper, inside the cavity and outside the skin. Loosely stuff both the body and neck cavities of the turkey with the stuffing, being careful not to overstuff the bird. Use the whole slice of bread as a "door' to keep the stuffing inside the body cavity so it won't fall out while roasting. Carefully place the bird in the roasting pan, breast side up. if you want to use a roasting rack simply place the bird on the rack and set inside the pan. Sprinkle top of the bird with paprika. Using a piece of 100% cotton kitchen string tie the drumsticks together. Loosely cover with foil. Roast the turkey 4 to 5 hours, about 15 to 20 minutes per pound. (Fresh turkey tends to cook faster than thawed frozen turkeys.) Meanwhile, prepare Garlic Roasted Root Vegetables with turkey stock for Giblet Gravy. Spoon juices from bottom of roasting pan over turkey every hour or so, removing foil for the last hour of roasting to give turkey a golden brown glaze. During the last 30 minutes of roasting, add the Garlic Roasted Root Vegetables to roasting pan, brush turkey with marmalade, and sprinkle with orange peel. TO TEST FOR DONENESS: The turkey should be golden brown; when a drumstick is wiggled, it should feel slightly loose; and juices should run clear. Gently remove turkey from roasting pan and place on a serving platter; cover loosely with foil. Let rest 20 minutes before carving. Remove the stuffing from turkey and place in a serving bowl; discard slice of bread. Arrange Garlic Roasted Root Vegetables around turkey and garnish with sage sprigs. Carve and serve with the hot gravy on the side. Makes 10 to 12 4-oz. servings plus leftovers. FROM THE TEST KITCHEN: If the turkey is frozen be sure to defrost it in the refrigerator. Depending on the size it can take up to 3 to 4 days to defrost thoroughly. * Separate recipes ** Room temperature simply means that the bird shouldn't come straight out of the refrigerator. You don't want to let the bird sit around for hours; remove from fridge about 30 minutes before roasting while you make the stuffing.
