If our benevolent hunger games overlords see fit to hyphenize or turkey with the gravy, why not F the dressing, call it stuffing, and pick:
1Stuffed turkey with gravy and cranberry sauce
2Mashed potatoes, savory and sweet
3Vegetable
4Pie.

Not to be a tedious bore... but technically you didn't brine dat bird. You were following in the footsteps of dozens of generations of tandoori cooks (and southern fried folk), using enzymes in dairy products (buttermilk or yogurt)to denature the protiens and break down conective tissues. Brine marinades season the…

So you go to beyond the.olive. have you tried Nichole's? Its on el centro in south Pas by mission station. The are a high quality shop like what.youre talking about. My sister is a manager there and they have a lot of interesting foods. Check it out. (Friend of swimmingingravybird... talking Turkish and the subject of…

Well, now you're talking about the good shit... don't cook with those super special ones, too expensive and you will end up masking with garlic, or down right destroying with heat, the complex flavors... I just want you to avoid cheap cheap veg oil, unless you plan to just toss the oil and use the garlic. I do not…

If u make a shit ton for thanksgiving, buy one of the plastic jars of peeled, not chopped, just peeled raw garlic cloves. Put them in a very small sauce pan just barely covered in olive oil, not coated, soaking in it! And cook it on the stove at low/medium low, until they get soft and brown... lot less work and mess,…

French. Its sour cream thats not sour. May be the best thing you ever try. It used to be fda verboten, (not pasteurized) but either the rules or the recipe changed so you can and should buy it now.

Allows you to limit butter. As a chef, this is one of the first non stupid things I've read here. Butter milk is low fat and delicious... try that in addition or instead of.

Salting the water is fine, but if the taters are bland its cause they forgot to fucking season the gotdam food!!! If you have lots of salt I recommend it... but its not that important if you are mashing them after cooking and go back at the end to season to taste.

Any potato worth mashing has a thick skin not unlike robert redfords leathery face. Thin skinned taters and people just can't hold up to the levels of abuse we need here. For skin on, you should do smashed potatoes, not mashed or whipped. Boil, quick mash by hand, season. Add butter and buttermilk or extra virgin…

Buttermilk, real, from a farm, not the name brand shit thats just skim milk with citric acid, is also distinctive and delicious.

You can just buy creme fraiche in the store now... pour your petri dish down the drain before we read about your thanksgiving massacre on gawker... I've made it myself as well, it's just too risky for dinner for ten/twenty, whatever, kill em all.

Those are ok, spend an extra $15 and spring for a food mill, that thing is kinda one trick pony... turning handle type has endless uses.

Leave her, you can't use a food processor with starchy stuff unless you want glue! Its fine for mashed parsnips and cauliflower, but a hand crank food mill is best for taters... a stand mixer is ok, but keep an eye on that shit, one minute to long and it goes from lumpy to glue.

White pepper is black pepper, with the black removed. How do you find it to taste like something that you don't detect in the complete peppercorn? Just edit to indicate that you find segregated pepper to be immoral.

I'm sure they would go great.with molebbq chix, but keep that shit out of here, we are talkin turkey day!!!

It's called a grocery store. They are usually.next to a whole bunch of other third world root vegetables, like manioc, ginger, yucca, etc.

For the really lazy, they can buy the little jar of peeped, NOT chopped garlic cloves, and roast them in a small saucepan on low heat for the same 1/2 hour on the stove with some of the butter and olive oil... also, its fucking thanxgivin, not weight watchers!!! Five to ten lbs of good taters and cream, 1/2&1/2…

Is felicia banging your ex, or are you felicias ex? I got called out for assuming the post was a great joke! Or are you actually the public access stripper and are now upset about the expectation of privacy at a venue that uses something called a "jumbotron" to broadcast pictures of the crowd?

No way!!!!!!! In that case please accept my apologies! Seriously?!?! If so wtf! That has to be a joke! But if it's the 2nd thing you said... thats the same joke for me, just bitchier.
