I miss my moms kugel. Do you have a simple recipe without cinnamon and orange zest?
Tori Avey says
Hi Melody, here is my most popular standard sweet kugel recipe. Just omit the cinnamon sugar topping and replace it with your favorite topping (there are some suggestions in the post). Hope this helps! https://toriavey.com/toris-kitchen/2012/05/sweet-lokshen-kugel/

Most likely the early settlers ate fish and squash. Not pies and turkey and cranberry sauce!

Elisa, why would a kosher turkey make a difference?

I have a question about brining kosher turkey I’m getting mixed answers if it’s ok it not
Tori Avey says
Elisa I have brined kosher turkeys in the past, I usually cut the salt of the brine in half to balance the salt of the turkey. Or you can use a salt-free brine. A reader told me she brined in pineapple juice with great results, the acid of the fruit juice helps to permeate the meat and give it a hint of sweetness. However, overall I would say it’s not totally necessary to brine. As long as you follow proper roasting procedures and keep an eye on the internal temperature, you should end up with a moist flavorful turkey. An electric thermometer with a probe and temperature alarm really helps! I don’t recommend stuffing the bird with anything other than aromatics (fresh herbs, apple or citrus slices, spices). Stuffing with bread “stuffing” can pull out moisture from the breast meat, better to cook it separately in my opinion. But of course, there are different schools of thought on this. Good luck, happy holiday!

Thanks you!
