Thanksgiving food is surprisingly mediocre. Seems like it was designed by the British.

I'm sorry you haven't experienced good Thanksgiving food.

However, there is a lot of super good thanksgiving food

[–] the_artic_one@programming.dev 15 points 11 months ago (2 children)

It's mediocre because most people never try to cook any of it outside of Thanksgiving and don't experiment with the recipes because they're trying to cook a bunch of dishes and don't want to mess them up.

Turkey is good when it's not overcooked and underseasoned. Mashed potatoes are good when they're not gummy from not having the extra starch rinsed off or chunky from being undercooked. Stuffing is good when it's not shoved into a turkey cavity or soggy from sitting in drippings and has ingredients in it besides bread.

I agree with everything you said but the stuffing, I prefer mine prepared in the bird but I make another batch cooked on its own for those who don't like it.

It's also a good idea to soak the turkey in brine and ice before cooking

Try going to New Orleans next year for TG. They know how to do it right.
