Be sure to check the expiration date on spices and milks and dated stuff..

I use smell test for spices, sometimes "fresh" stuff is a dud.

some interesting recipes

Nice tips. Thanks.

Yum, Carlo! I've prepared that turkey before (or one remarkably similar), and it turned out absolutely beautiful.

I have a question: You mention: "Canned chicken, beef, vegetables, or even Turkey stock is perfectly acceptable for gravy or as the base for a soup." I've read that a good stock will congeal when refrigerated, and I see this happen when I make homemade stock from turkey carcasses after Thanksgiving or Christmas. But the stock I buy in the grocery store (Kitchen Basics) does not congeal at all when refrigerated. Is that rule true, and if so, is there a better stock to be had on the grocer's shelves, and who might carry it?

Thanksgiving bump.

OK. What is the best type of white wine to have with turkey? Should it be a sweeter type or what?

[SF Republican]

Drink a Napa Valley Zinfindel with it (the real red stuff no pink).

I never have made stuffing with 2 eggs. What's the purpose of the eggs?
