On Monday, I made the remains of the Thanksgiving turkey into broth. Although I often do broth on the wood stove, my husband was not going to make a fire until evening, so I did it on the stove top.
I also peeled and cut up some sweet potatoes, tossed in a bit of olive oil and roasted at 400F for 30 minutes. Then I drizzled them with some maple syrup and roasted another ten minutes. The sweet potatoes are from the farmers’ market, and because they are fresh, they are very tender. My husband cooked some pork, and we also had microwaved broccoli.
I did not know and selected the incorrect answer, but it is good to know the correct answer.
I wonder if temperature makes a difference?
No baking here today, but I will be baking tomorrow.
Aaron--I'm glad that you are supporting the butter industry, now that I no longer can. I used 1 1/2 Tbs. butter in my pumpkin pie, and 1 Tbs. butter in the mashed potatoes. Ah, how the butter devotee has fallen!
I'm also craving cinnamon rolls now. Maybe I'll make some pumpkin ones next weekend.
We happily continue our turkey sandwiches at lunch and will happily re-run the Thanksgiving dinner one more time on Sunday evening. It's nice to have a low-key day while I pack away the fall décor and begin decking the halls.
I worked out the correct answer.
Leftover turkey dinner with the mashed potatoes and gravy this time. (Dressing again tomorrow!)
Italian Cook--the email does not have a promo code, so it must be that the buyer has to click through that email for the discount.
I missed it, but I'm glad to know this information.
Is Aniseed the same as Star Anise?
Italian Cook--I went back and checked the email I received from KAF, as well as a second one, and both state free shipping over $49. Maybe you have to be on their email list?
We had turkey on the rye-wheat-pumpkin bread for lunch. For dinner, we had leftover turkey, dressing, gravy, and peas and carrots. I had some cranberry apple salad, and my husband had some applesauce. We'll have the mashed potatoes in one of the upcoming re-run meals.
I usually am not in the kitchen the day after Thanksgiving, preferring to munch on delicious leftovers and bask in the holiday afterglow, but the supply of Healthier Whole Wheat Sourdough Cheese Crackers has been dwindling, and I expect we will run out by late next week. I went ahead and made up the dough for the crackers. It’s best if it can sit, divided into four equal amounts, in the refrigerator for about four days before I roll out, cut, and bake the crackers.
I know this one.
My husband roasted the turkey. I made dressing from Pepperidge Farm Stuffing--two separate dishes, one with onions, which is almost all gone, and one without onion, from which my husband had a spoonful. I also made mashed potatoes and gravy. We cooked frozen peas and carrots for the vegetable. One of my friends brought a delicious apple-cranberry salad. It's not sweet and went well with the dressing. We also had my homemade applesauce from the freezer. We had Ellen's buns baked in the pumpkin muffin pan and the pumpkin rye bread. Of course, there was my pumpkin pie for dessert.
Thanksgiving was our first dinner party since we remodeled the house.
