Don’t get me wrong, I love tradition just as much as the next GeekMom. But when it comes to Thanksgiving supper, I like to slip in a new recipe to see if I’ve found a new classic. This is my favorite time of year to cook and bake, because it is the time when my favorite fruit is readily available on produce shelves: cranberries! Each year I keep my eyes peeled for innovative recipes using this versatile berry, and this year, I’ve found Cranberry Orange Mustard, thanks to Serious Eats. We’re having a Thanksgiving picnic this year: turkey and dressing burgers, green bean casserole salad, sweet potato fries. This may be the condiment those burgers need.
Do you have a favorite cranberry recipe (that isn’t a highly guarded family secret, like my cranberry pound cake)? What other Thanksgiving traditions do you keep, or which have you tweaked in the recent past?
My hub is the cook in this house. I’ll have to share this recipe with him. Sounds good.
