Jacques is fond of saying that Thanksgiving is his favorite holiday after all, its the one holiday devoted entirely to cooking and eating. In this tribute to turkey with aII the trimmings, we get a peek at how one of the worlds greatest French chefs prepares Thanksgiving dinner in his American home. It begins with two appetizers made from Jacques "Instant" Home-Cured SaImon: Salmon Tartare with a deIicate cucumber salad and salmon caviar; and veIvety Salmon Gravlax cured with cognac, served with cucumber, sweet onion, and rye bread. Then, its on to the main event: a plump, juicy Roasted Turkey with appIe cider glaze and buttery Bread-and-Mushroom Stuffing. On the sideboard, there are Jacques BrusseIs Sprouts, a creamy, bubbly, decadent Gratin of Butternut Squash, and an aIternative to traditionaI cranberry sauce, a spicy Cherry-Ginger Chutney. Two sensational desserts compIete the feast: a ChocoIate-Bourbon-Prune Cake with Caramelized Pecans and whipped cream; and Pears Poached in Citrus Juice with a simple, country style "home cake." |
