Try cranberry chutney instead. There are some fabulous ones on epicurious.com. I make one every year with shallots and balsamic vinegar and it is wonderful, very savory and a nice kick in the salivary glands up against all that bland meat.<BR/><BR/>Mashed potatoes: my husband's very Irish family would have a fit if I overlooked them--though I agree with you, they seem born to be extruded. Here, I suggest mashing them with leeks sauteed in butter and some fresh chopped thyme. Very nice!<BR/><BR/>I'm going to brine a turkey this year. Apparently it makes it much much more moist--and you have a ready excuse not to make gravy from the drippings!<BR/><BR/>LauraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
