Sticky Rice
Glutinous rice is distinctively aromatic and appealingly chewy. Before being steamed, it requires at least 3 hours of soaking (overnight is fine, too).
Madeira Cream Gravy
If you like fried chicken with cream gravy, you'll love this sauce —sophisticated and rich, with a bit of sweet fruitiness from the Madeira. It's a wonderful alternative to traditional pan gravy. You'll have to choose between this gravy or the cider sage version for the holiday meal, as you'll need the neck and giblets as well as the pan drippings for this recipe.
Torquato's Tuscan Slaw
This recipe was given to Willinger by the late Torquato Innocenti, the local farmer whom Willinger considered her muse. Whenever she bought vegetables from his stand, he would give her terrific ideas for how to use them. Willinger wanted to honor his recipe-sharing tradition by passing this delicious slaw along to our readers.
