Agreed. Herbs or some other extremely flavorful/aromatic substance
tucked under the skin, just about anything you can do to boost the
flavor and aroma, are all good ideas for frozen turkeys in general,
not just ones that have become borderline stale. But a long-frozen
bird responds especially well to this kind of treatment.
