Pat the turkey completely dry inside and out with paper towels. Loosen the skin over the breast and thighs by sliding your fingers gently between the skin and the meat. Rub about two-thirds of the dry brine directly onto the meat under the skin, then rub the remaining third all over the outside of the bird, including the back, legs, and wings. Place the turkey breast-side up on a roasting rack set in a roasting pan. Refrigerate uncovered for at least 24 hours and up to 72 hours ā the longer the brine, the more seasoned and dry the skin.
