We’ve got a menu for your holiday.
The menus are being planned, grocery lists made, details finalized — it’s nearly go time for Thanksgiving, a time for epic feasting and the one day of the year on which even the most reluctant home cooks wander into the kitchen. Are you ready?
I’m here to help. We have Thanksgiving recipes for just about every dish you could think of, but today I’m sharing recipes that have become the new classics of the genre: holiday dishes from Cooking that are simple but imbued with intelligence and spark, recipes that are beloved by our readers and indisputably delicious.
