Garlicky Collards With White Wine And Chilis

Though collards are often stewed for a very long time until soft and wilted, I prefer cooking them just until they’re tender but still have some toothsome bite. Make sure to remove the ribs beforehand, as they’re tough and don’t soften during cooking.

Pink Lady Applesauce

My favorite apples for making applesauce are Pink Lady apples because of their pink hue and balanced flavor. But if you prefer a more tart sauce, try using Granny Smith apples instead.

Yukon Gold potatoes work best for this recipe because they’re slightly waxy and hold their shape after cooking. For best results, don’t rinse the potatoes once sliced; the starch helps the potatoes stick together and absorb the butter.

Laura Calder’s Parsley, Sage, Rosemary & Thyme–Brined Roast Turkey

A 15-lb. turkey will serve 12 to 14 people. The brine used in this recipe results in a juicy bird with lovely crispy skin. The extra rub of butter before roasting doesn’t hurt, either! If you’re hosting fewer, buy one or two breasts instead.
