Instructions

1.Preheat the oven to 325°F (162°C).
2.Rinse the turkey and pat dry with paper towels. Place it in a roasting pan and rub it all over with salt and crushed roasted sichuan peppercorn.
3.To make the stuffing, rinse the glutinous rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Place the rice in a large pot and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
4.In a large wok or skillet, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic powder and onion powder and stir until fragrant. Add Chinese pork sausage, duck liver sausage, Chinese barbecue pork, dried shrimp, black dried Chinese mushrooms, radish, water chestnut, bamboo shoot, and frozen green peas. Stir and cook until everything is evenly mixed and heated through.
5.Add the cooked rice to the wok or skillet. Stir and cook for a few more minutes, until everything is evenly mixed. Add oyster sauce, white pepper, and salt to taste.
6.Stuff the turkey with the rice mixture. Tie the legs together with kitchen twine and tuck the wings under the body of the turkey.
7.Roast the turkey for about 3-4 hours, or until the internal temperature of the thickest part of the turkey reaches 165°F (74°C).
8.Remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.
9.Serve with pine nuts as a garnish if desired.
