Celery Root And Potatoes Dauphinoise

Gravy From a Brined Bird
The lifeblood of a Thanksgiving meal is the gravy. To make it truly delicious, you need the hot fat and juices from the turkey and the consistency of texture that comes from pulling all the elements together just before the gravy hits the table. The addition of drippings fortified with wine allows you to build flavor.

Kohlrabi and Celery Root Purée
This simple combination tastes so good to me, it hardly needs embellishment. The butter is optional. If you miss old-fashioned buttery mashed potatoes, let this be a stand-in.

Smoked Turkey Pâté
This recipe is an excellent way to use leftover meat from a smoked turkey. It came to The Times in 2010, along with a profile of Greenberg Smoked Turkey Inc., a Tyler, Tex., company founded in 1938 by Samuel Isaac Greenberg.

Classic Last-Minute Gravy

Deviled Crab With Oysters Baked On The Half Shell

Torrisi Turkey
The roast turkey breast that Rich Torrisi and Mario Carbone serve for lunch at their restaurant Parm in New York City is about the moistest, most luxuriously flavorful turkey available on the planet: rich and buttery, deep with rich turkey taste. They wrap a brined breast in plastic wrap and aluminum foil and place it in an intensely humid low-temperature oven that leaves the meat dense with moisture, heavy with flavor. Then they paint a glaze of honey and roasted garlic on the meat and place it in a hot, dry oven to create a crust. The result is turkey that tastes emphatically of turkey. And you can do it at home.

Celery Root, With Mushrooms and Parmesan

Potato-Celery Root Stuffing

Celery Root, Potato and Apple Purée
Classic celery root and potato purées combine two parts potatoes with one part celery root. I’ve reversed the proportion here for a lighter purée that also incorporates apple — the “secret ingredient." Rather than milk, I usually use the broth from the celery root and apples.

Potato-Celery Root Puree

Apple Turnovers
This recipe requires minimal attention, making it perfect for holiday gatherings or large parties. The apple triangles can be assembled up to a month ahead and frozen, since puff pastry is so packed with butter that it keeps perfectly.

Swirled Persimmon Semifreddo

Cranberry Ketchup
This pungent sweet-and-sour "ketchup" is a versatile condiment on warm meatloaf sandwiches and with paillards of grilled chicken, beef, pork or steamed rice. The concoction is also perfect in place of butter on bread and toast.

Persimmon And Buttermilk Pudding

Larry's Tarte Tatin

Roast Breast of Turkey

Turkey Breast With Stuffing
Turkey breast can be seasoned all sorts of ways and served with various stuffings. I cook the stuffing separately, which lets me monitor the breast's doneness more precisely. When a meat thermometer in the center of the breast reaches 160 degrees, it is done. Let it rest, covered, 10 minutes or so before carving. This recipe originally appeared with corn bread-sausage stuffing.

Sliced Turkey Breasts With Herbs

Turkey Piccata

Roasted Eggplant and Chickpeas With Tomato Sauce
Eggplant is always a good, substantial vegetable to use for a vegetarian main dish. The chickpeas and the feta provide plenty of protein. Vegans can leave out the feta and substitute sugar or agave nectar for the honey.

Turkey Breast With Mozzarella and Prosciutto

Roasted Free-Range Chicken With Swiss Chard And Marrow Gratin
Drawing on a classic French technique, this full-flavored chicken with greens is a Baedeker of things to come. For a leaner meal, replace the butter with olive oil in the gratin and eliminate the marrow bones.
