A Bright Thanksgiving Feast: From The Heart

Hello. If you’re new, I’m Olivia Mei Forth, creator of the blog of Olivia’s Fun Food Blog. It’s not a big deal. Still, I want to show my skills to the world. My sister Luella is planning on making a show called “Who Can Make The Best Pancakes?”

My sister is my business partner for cooking. She’s the mascot for Joy Industries, my company… well, she’s just the mascot. I love her little ways of thinking and adorable imagination. My Ice Cream and Salad was dedicated to her. (Dedication

Thanksgiving is a big deal and stress. Two words. Total. Stress. You sometimes have to cook on your own for a whole family. Imagine if you had thirty family members and you had to feed them? I love blogging because it’s like a public talent show.

Let the cooking feast begin!

Thanksgiving Turkey

Prep: Place turkey in pan with tinfoil placed. Buy ingredients a week before for extra prep.

  1. Buy a well cared turkey and slap it on the wings, body and belly. Pour a bit of sesame and soy sauce on top, wait till the sauce reaches the tinfoil. Then, just a pinch of pepper and salt will be the seasoning. Then, cut some thyme and sprinkle it just a bit on the outside, but a bit more on the inside.
  2. Have you prepped the seasonings and sauces? Yes? Then, start the filling. I love potatoes and certainly think they are a good substitute for bread and other things for fillings.
  3. Start cutting the peel of potato off, and when your family is doing so, you do a extra pat on the turkey. Sprinkle some extra thyme if you want a peppermint flavour along with the delicious seasonings and sauces. After the potatoes are peeled, get a large pan ready and squirt just a bit of olive oil and move the pan to side to side for it to be all over. The substitute can be butter.
  4. When the potatoes are a good golden colour, ask your mom or dad to put it in the turkey. It’s not dangerous at all, but maybe the blood might be still there, so ask your mom or dad to clean it and put the toppings in. For prep, and if you have siblings, you and them can get the table ready. Normal for just family dinner, Fancy for party dinner.
  5. Ask your mom or dad to get an ovenmit and take the turkey to put in the oven. Set for about half an hour or more, till golden and has a tasty taste.

Have some cranberries that your dying to use? Here’s this recipe:

Cranberry Jelly

  1. Add water into a pot and boil it for 10-15 minutes. Once it looks like a liquid, strain them in a cheesecloth.
  2. When it is no longer hot, squeeze the juice into a large bowl. Time to add the sugar, and time to beat the heat!
  3. Beat the sugar into the water, and then restart boiling.
  4. Once boiling, stir in the liquid certo.
  5. If foam is pouring out, scrape it. Maybe it will come in handy. I think I’ll use it to make the jelly fancier.
  6. Pour into jars until there are only 1/2 inches left on the jars. Then, if you want to get fancy, put some tiny plates out. Chop into pieces, only 2 inches. Then, maybe add the foam, or not, if your anxiety level is high, and give a glass of water if too bitter. Of course not! Your a great chef!

These are the recipes that will brighten your feast. Bon appetit!
