Having no family left. I buy a turkey breast, boxed stuffing , make green beans casserole, I buy a pumpkin pie. I remember when I had gotten married 43 years ago I would follow my mom’s recipes for the holidays. I remember getting up early to chop onions and celery and cut up the old bread. Thank you Becky for showing me things I used to do when I was young.

Happy Thanksgiving ☺️

[@debbiedugay8574]

Hubby and I are 65 and live in England (his country) but I am American (Texas). They do not celebrate Thanksgiving here, of course and we have no family in England anymore. My Mother passed away earlier this year and I am really missing her. Thanksgiving is such a family holiday that this is the only time of year I REALLY miss my family. I will still cook a feast for the 2 of us but I so miss cooking with my Mom, even when she was too frail to stand long enough to cook. She would sit and chat while I cooked and we talked over all the Thanksgivings we spent around the world in our military travels. I hope you enjoy your turkey and stuffing, just as I will, despite of the lack of family. Sending you virtual hugs! Happy Thanksgiving!

OMG Becky. I made the orange cranberry cheesecake! I’m shocked. I can’t believe I made a cheesecake. I know it doesn’t seem like a big deal but I NEVER thought I’d make a cheesecake never mind a flavored one. My family loved it at thanksgiving. I did exactly as you did regarding the sauce. No extra sugar, corn syrup or even a blender. Exactly like yours. It was phenomenal. I used the whole bag of cranberries (bc what would I ever do with random cranberry’s ?). The extra sauce I put in a jar and it was fantastic on leftover Turkey sammys! Love it! I can’t wait to make another one.

[@lorimcmichael5846]

Hi Becky! Everything looks soooo good! You might want to try a mandolins- slices the potato in half the time and can get really thin!

Hi Becky, I wanted let you know that you can save your cheese rinds off your Gruyère cheese or Parmesan cheese and pop them in the freezer. Add them to your soups to add flavor while cooking. Remember to fish them out before serving but it is an amazing way to add some addition flavor! Also, I made your Grandma’s stuffing last thanksgiving and it was a huge hit! It is on our menu again these year by a unanimous vote. Thank you for bringing joy to our home and I am so grateful for all of your wonderful inspiration and recipes. 🧡

Hello ivysantiago

[@evanorvell8368]

Looks like amazing recipes! FYI~cheesecake should not be beaten in the mixer since it aerates the mixture and changes the texture making it more spongy. Very soft cream cheese and hand mixing gently with a whisk is the best way to blend for a very creamy cheesecake! 🙂

[@saradean5523]

You can use a mixer but just be careful of the speed you cream the mixture with; I've done it hundreds of times. You don't "whip" it - you "cream" it. Becky did just fine obviously because hers was beautiful!

[@annelord3685]

Hi Becky your potatoes au gratin, is very similar to mine, but I use layers of thinly sliced onions instead of garlic. I also have a twist, add thin layers of uncooked sausage meat. Now you have "gateaux du pauvre homme". I make this often and when my grown up children come to visit , IT'S A MUST!!!!!! All the best. Anne in France.

Tip on cheese rands; Great addison to put in soups/sauces. Its not a problem to let it cook along for up to an hour. I have a freezer bag in my freezer where i save all cheese rands.

[@madzabinga8382]

Becky has mentioned several times that she does save cheese rinds.

[@nixi-bixi]

Hey becky, the digestive "cookies" (biscuits!) The brand name is McVities. They come plain like you bought, but more popular are chocolate digestives, one side of the plain digestive has a thin layer of chocolate - they are available in both milk chocolate and dark chocolate. Another British biscuit you might like and the plain version would also be good for a cheesecake base are hobnobs, they are an oat based biscuit, not like an oatmeal cookie your familiar with but rather like the digestive. its half digestive, half oatmeal cookie but has the density and snap of the digestive/Graham cracker that you get from true biscuits aka twice baked; unlike cookies which are soft (& probably part of the reason why brits will say a cookie is a biscuit but a biscuit is not a cookie).

[@samjones9465]

Love the dark chocolate digestives - but funnily enough I hate Hobnobs in any form - all I can taste is granulated sugar.

[@Mama-tea]

Great explanation

[@kimbradley1292]

You said everything I was going to say! Very well explained thanks🙂

Here's a great leftover stuffing idea. you'll need a waffle iron. 3-4 cups stuff, 1 egg -beaten, 2 Tbls. Melted butter. Combine. Put 1/2 cup stuffing on a hot waffle iron, sprayed. Waffle will brown. Serve with eggs & sausage for breakfast, or turkey & cranberry sandwich for lunch.

The pitato dish is pronounced I believe as follows: aww gra tin. The recipes look yummy. I cook all the Turkey "extras" inside the turkey on the stove with butter and broth and use the liquid for my stuffing. I only finely chop the liver to add in. No one can tell it's in there. Also add sauted finely chopped fresh mushrooms and tiny slivers of chopped carrot. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

For a super quick au gratin you can add your thinly sliced potatoes to a baking dish in layers - sprinkling a small amount of powdered onion soup mix and a drizzle of heavy/thickened cream between each layer. Alternatively, you can do the same layering process but add chopped green onion, crushed garlic and cooked bacon with the drizzle of heavy cream between each layer. Top with grated cheese and cracked black pepper.

Pronounced like...Aw Grah ten. Au Gratin.

I just love your baking drawer. It’s so efficient. When I reno my kitchen I want to incorporate this. I find your whole kitchen to be very efficient. Would love to hear from your view what works and what doesn’t though.

The drawers are by far my favorite thing about my kitchen!

[@dianedohman1807]

My kitchen is 90 percent deep drawers and so practical .

How interesting Becky, so good. I'm going to try to make the Cranberry and Orange Cheesecake for 8th Dec on a family break to start the Christmas season❣️

[@7kadventuresIA]

Loving the extra videos (or seems like extra ones) as we enter the busy cooking season. Thanksgiving, my youngest turns 1, and Christmas - it’s about to get very crazy here 😂 Nice to have some motivational videos on ❤

We use Digestive biscuits in the UK because we don't have Graham Crackers. Also for an autumnal twist you can also add Ginger snaps in with the digestives. Add cinnamon and also nutmeg. I have just finished making Caramel Macchiato Cheesecakes for the weekend as all my children and grandchildren will be home. Also a lovely decadent cheesecake is Turtles Cheesecake. As you can see I love cheesecake

Becky has taught me a lot of things. I am now a committed “precooker.” Thanks to our sweet ❤Becky.

My tummy is rumbling! In UK we don't have this holiday but I hope you all enjoyed yourselves ❤ much love from across the pond 💖

One of the best side dishes I’ve ever had was years ago at Bobby Flay’s Mesa Grille in the Bahamas. It was a southwest sweet potato gratin. Not heavy on the dairy but lots of spice. So good! I’ve been looking for a recipe since.

[@hdavis1291]

I was thinking butter and cinnamon, maybe a little cream.

[@Bakerjen49]

@@hdavis1291 that would be good too. I’d probably lean into the sweetness with that and top with a little brown sugar.

[@jenmatt1923]

I've only watched a few of your videos, so forgive my ignorance, but where are you from? We don't pronounce potatoes au gratin the same way. I'm in the NE part of the US.

[@heatherlovesdeuteronomy]

She's from Washington near Seattle. Im from New England and I was like wow I've never heard of graytan, but then realized as she's laying out the thin potatoes in layers that it looks just like potatoes au gratin 😂😂😂

My late husband took our family stuffing recipe and tweaked it. We do a pork sausage, apple, Bartlett pear, and some raisins. People who don't like stuffing really love mine. I bake mine the day before and just heat it up in the oven while the turkey finishes. We love Thanksgiving and all the fun sides. Have a great day everyone, Debbie Lavigne 😊 I made a recipe for sweet potato au gratin. It sounded luscious. It tasted awful, it was so bad that I threw it away. Now I'm reluctant to do it again.

[@marlies7444]

The apple, pears, and raisin addition sounds great. I have all here I might add those. I have the golden raisin, my favorite.

[@robertlavigne6560]

@@marlies7444 sounds good. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does. Happy Thanksgiving. 😊

[@sandragoss48]

I do Sweet Potatoes, beets, and parsnips with cream and garlic baked to perfection. Yum. A family favorite.

[@thewhitehorsefarm]

The caramel should’ve been underneath the apples…..the apples would not have stuck to the pan.

[@scoobysnacks]

I love plain sausage/sage stuffing. I don't like it with all of the added stuff like cranberries, apples, and nuts. Some people add olives too and I can deal with them, but I definitely prefer stuffing that's not all fancied up.

[@shaunballard3614]

Hi Becky. Two comments about the recipes. We put chicken livers in our stuffing. It adds a rich buttery taste. You would never know it comes from chicken livers. The trick is to chop them very fine. We use the food processor for that. Also, I came up with a sweet potato gratin a few years ago. We sprinkle some paprika, a bit of salt and white pepper right on the potatoes. Add a little gruyere cheese in between the layers and drizzle a small amount of cream over the top. You can make a cheese sauce, but if you do that you don't want to add the cream. It tends to break. When we make a sauce, we simply heat whole milk and reduce it then add the cheese off the heat. We don't care for the taste or texture of flour in the sauce. I hope you give it a try. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones!

[@1netie]

I also add chicken livers along with pine nuts and apples. Delicious!

Hi Becky, if you freeze the cheese rinds then add it when you are making soup, it adds a wonderful depth to the flavour. 🧀 ❤

Please film a cooking day with your mom again. I love seeing you two cook together.

Here in East Texas we eat Cornbread dressing - we use yellow cornmeal to make our cornbread and add just a little white bread toasted - celery, onions, sage if you like it (I use thyme and poultry seasoning), broth, parsley, and lots of black pepper. If you ever want to try it let me know! I'll send you a recipe!
