Thanksgiving

Tangerine Turkey

This is a great recipe if you want your turkey to turn out golden brown. The white meat will also come out super juicy. Say goodbye to a dry turkey!

Olive oil and starchy potato water add silkiness to buttery Yukon Golds. You will need either a food mill or potato ricer for this recipe. 

Chestnut, Leek & Apple Cornbread Stuffing

Everyone at your holiday table will love this stuffing. If you don’t want to use cornbread then feel free to substitute Pullman bread instead of the cornbread.

Dried Fruit & Spice Mincemeat

November 18, 2014

Mincemeat is especially nice to have on hand for adding a remarkable depth to fruited pie fillings. I also like to use it as a filling for crepes, and sometimes incorporate several tablespoons into a stuffing for the holiday turkey. Jarred, this mincemeat has a lifespan of about a year in the refrigerator of course. Dried Fruit & Spice Mincemeat makes a nice hostess gift for a friend who likes to cook. 

Holiday Cheese Ball

Cheese Balls are a classic American holiday food. A fun vintage item to talk about, easy to make, and delicious with a variety of ingredients, cheese balls are quite adaptable. 

Maple Biscuits

We here at Tiny New York Kitchen are getting ready for a delicious Thanksgiving. While we all focus on preparing the turkey dinner we often are left in a quandary about what to make for Thanksgiving breakfast. These Maple Biscuits are the perfect holiday breakfast. Serve them all by themselves or serve them with scrambled eggs and a side of bacon. 

Pumpkin Pancakes

Don’t throw away that leftover pumpkin. Make pancakes with it. 

Pilgrim Apple Pie

November 11, 2014

Pilgrims ate baked goods with almost every meal and apple pie was a favorite. The pilgrims brought many of their favorite fruits with them to North America. Colonists brought young apple trees from England and planted apple orchards. Pilgrim women used the apples to make apple pie, which quickly became a favorite dessert. Pilgrims even ate apple pie for breakfast.
