As my family's resident cook, I'll be preparing the Thanksgiving meal. We'll have around ten people this year. So what are we eating?
Mashed potatoes
Butter-glazed carrots
Green beans with shallots and almonds
Roasted Brussels sprouts
Brown sugar-glazed garnet sweet potatoes
Herbed bread stuffing
Cranberry sauce (spiced whole berry and plain jellied)
Pumpkin pie
Apple pie
Rolls (alas, these will not be homemade)
Classic relish tray
The family is eating turkey and turkey gravy. I've decided to try my hand at Fauxfurkey. My plan includes crispy yuba skin. I should probably practice this at least once before Thanksgiving rolls around. Are you all familiar with the Seitan O'Greatness recipe? It's amazing. I will be using a similar method (baking it, wrapped) in order to get an awesome texture. Wish me luck, folks, I'll probably need it! I will, of course, be making plenty of amazing vegetarian gravy for the veg folk at the table.
