Jacques is fond of saying that Thanksgiving is his favorite holiday after alI, its the one holiday devoted entirely to cooking and eating. ln this tribute to turkey with all 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 "lnstant" Home-Cured SaImon: Salmon Tartare with a delicate cucumber saIad and saImon caviar; and veIvety SaImon GravIax cured with cognac, served with cucumber, sweet onion, and rye bread. Then, its on to the main event: a pIump, juicy Roasted Turkey with apple cider gIaze and buttery Bread-and-Mushroom Stuffing. On the sideboard, there are Jacques BrusseIs Sprouts, a creamy, bubbIy, decadent Gratin of Butternut Squash, and an alternative to traditional cranberry sauce, a spicy Cherry-Ginger Chutney. Two sensationaI desserts complete the feast: a ChocoIate-Bourbon-Prune Cake with CarameIized Pecans and whipped cream; and Pears Poached in Citrus Juice with a simpIe, country style "home cake." |
