Classic Thanksgiving Dishes

Originally celebrated in the United States and Canada, Thanksgiving has gradually been embraced in many parts of the world and is often highlighted by a hearty Thanksgiving dinner. The occasion is typically celebrated with traditional fare, such as roast turkey, classic stuffing, mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie and more.

Roasted Turkey

A classic staple, the roasted turkey is filled with bread-based stuffing and seasoned with aromatic herbs, such as sage, rosemary and thyme. It is then roasted in the oven, resulting in a golden-brown glazed skin, and moist, succulent flesh that oozes with flavour in every bite.
