Turkey, lemony beans, sweet-and sour-carrots: Yotam Ottolenghi’s Thanksgiving recipes
You don’t have to be based in the US to enjoy these offbeat festive recipes
There’s a careful order to the Thanksgiving celebration: a turkey centrepiece plus all the trimmings, a pie (pumpkin, pecan or otherwise), good company, cheer and, above all, thanks – lots of it.
In these erratic times, in particular, I find the latter so important. You can – and, indeed, should – debate what to put on the table, whether to break from tradition or stay within its cozy confines, but for so many of us, fortunate to be sitting with loved ones over a plentiful meal, there is a very good reason to take a moment to acknowledge our fortune and count our blessings.
