Full Description
For Americans, The Thanksgiving holiday is an important family holiday and for those celebtrating away from home The Thanksgiving Table provides everything you need to enjoy this this most festive of holidays. The Thanksgiving Table is organised to keep this holiday a day of fun and relaxation - not a hot day in the kitchen. Chapters are organised by course and include appetizers, side dishes, a variety of turkey and stuffing recipes, right on down to cranberry relish and pumpkin pie. Dozens of clear colour photographs show a variety of techniques including trussing a turkey. And if you follow the author's simple instructions for brining a turkey - say goodbye to "dry". Leftovers are also addressed with recipes to finish up all that fine food. Detailed menus and timelines allow you to prepare many recipes days ahead of time. There is even a menu for a complete vegetarian dinner. Also included are "recipes" for table decorations like pumpkin candles to dress up the decor both quickly and inexpensively. The kids can join in by decorating their own tablecloth - which keeps them from feeling left out of the preparations.
