15-Minute (or Less) Thanksgiving Recipes

Don't over work your pastry dough or it will come out hard and inedible!

Pie crust receipe is fine.....EXCEPT.... you did not tell us how long to bake it at what temperature !!!!!!!!

cANT WAIT TO TRY ORANGE FENNEL SALAD !!

I prefer turkey gravy made with corn starch instead of flour. Mix 2 - 3 Tbsp. of corn starch in a bowl and mix cold water in it with a fork until smooth. Already have the drippings scraped and some broth boiling in the pan. Slowly pour the corn starch mixture in and stir. Mixing it with water before putting in keeps from having lumps. It will thicken as it cooks, and thicken a little more as it cools.

DavidA the reason they did not tell you how long and temp on pie is because the recipe is just for a simple crust. The cooking times and temps will vary depending on what type of filling you put inside, pumpkin, apple, cherry, etc. You would refer to the actual pie recipe for that info.

Corn starch gives gravy a horrible texture. Real gravy: pre brown flour, heat butter or separated fat from turkey, mix in flour , pour in turkey drippings mixed with water and supplement with chicken broth if you need more liquid. Perfect.

they all look good but do they rteally taste good?

I've always used corn starch to thicken my gravy, in a pinch I will use flour. I used to use this stuff called Wondra, it was great but I can't find it around here anymore. After using a little corn starch mixed with very cold water to slightly thicken the gravy, you can use instant potato flakes to thicken it more, that way it's easier to reheat when you need to for left overs. Happy Thanksgiving to all!! May God bless you in the coming year!

looks good always looking for great thanksgivings

Note to DavidA. Usually you cook your pie based on the filling, not the crust. Good luck, and happy cooking.
