There are few things more traditional than a Thanksgiving dinner. Things just don’t feel right when something is missing. First of all, you have to have the turkey and all the fixings. Those fixings usually include mashed potatoes and gravy, vegetables like beans or squash, cranberry sauce, stuffing, and dessert has to be a pie, generally pumpkin pie ranks high on the list. Add some football games to the food, and you’ve got yourself a traditional family celebration.
Notes:
*cranberry: fruta conhecida no Brasil como oxicoco, arando, arando vermelho ou mirtilo vermelho.
**dark meat/white meat: a tradução literal seria “carne escura” e “carne clara”, mas de acordo com uma especialista em assuntos gastronômicos, não fazemos essa diferenciação no Brasil. No entanto, usamos mais os termos “coxa e sobrecoxa” para carne escura e “peito” para carne clara.
