I know people are getting cranked up (in good ways and not so good ways) about the upcoming holidays. Thanksgiving is my favorite; filled with good food, friends, football. I want to help de-stress it for everyone. Read all about my regular Orphans', Refugees' and Procrastinators' Thanksgiving on my other blog. That article includes my Thanksgiving Spice Rub recipe.
Although, I'll be covering the Toronto Gourmet Food and Wine Show (held the long weekend of American Thanksgiving), I'll be sharing tips and recipes here. From now through the holidays.
Here at Suite101, I'd like to start with a couple of quick "cheats" for Thanksgiving. First time cooks in particular should appreciate these. For example: Thanksgiving Cheat #1: Wondra Sauce and Gravy Flour. See my Chicken Marsala recipe for another use. Chicken Marsala - It's What's For Dinner Tonight.
