Alton Brown

This chewy, nut-filled blondie recipe comes from EveryDayCook by Alton Brown.

Aim to get your fully thawed turkey into the turkey brine 12 hours before cooking.

If you aren't making the schmaltz manié ahead of time, there's no need to form the paste into balls. Simply add the paste by teaspoonfuls to the simmering stock until the gravy has reached the desired consistency.

Extra vitamin C enhances the yeast. This recipe is an accompaniment forCountry-Style Sourdough Bread.

The longer you wait to use the proto-dough, the tangier the bread will be.
