Whether or not you celebrate Thanksgiving, the traditional flavor combos are delicious. Whenever I make a turkey roast during the year for a Shabbat or Yom Tov meal, I always want to put cranberry sauce on the menu. They just go so well together! And the fact that there’s already an established menu, and therefore no guessing game, is a total bonus!
I say we pick another annual meal and set a standard menu (with wiggle room and artistic license of course). Keep in mind, there’s no expiration date on these foods (except maybe summer BBQ season), so go ahead and make this menu All. Winter. Long.
Happy Cooking!
