5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive Book -- Can be Used Year-Round, November 4, 2009
I was VERY impressed with this book. Beautiful photographs, clear instructions, unusual recipes. If anyone is uneasy about entertaining this book will make you confident. From appetizers to luscious desserts. Cape Cod cranberry compote; and Indiana persimmon pudding are examples. She even included Thanksgiving leftover recipes -- and they're not the usual "blah" receipes, they look delicious! I love Succotash and the New England Iron-Skillet Succotash is so origiinal and delicious. These recipes can be used all year long. Ms. Morgan did a great job with this book -- it's beautiful and useful. A must for a kitchen. A lovely book.

4.0 out of 5 stars An affectionate tribute to American regional cuisine, January 11, 2010
In an age when fast food-style convenience is often traded for quality and a complete "Thanksgiving dinner in a bag" can be purchased at the supermarket, Diane Morgan has written a cookbook that proves great cooking doesn't have to be a hassle. Full of friendly advice, bits of trivia and helpful tips, The New Thanksgiving Table: An American Celebration of Family, Friends, and Food is written for cooks of all skill levels. The author explains in detail how to put the recipes together, as well as what steps can be completed ahead of time. The photography is beautifully done, illustrating what the dishes should look like while making a simple pudding with whipped cream look rich and decadent. The introduction includes descriptions of and selection tips for foods that may be unfamiliar to some, as well as a primer on kitchen equipment. The star of most Thanksgiving dinners is not neglected. Instructions on how to buy, thaw, and prepare a turkey for cooking are included along with mouthwatering recipes for the entire meal.

This is a uniquely American cookbook with a focus on regional cuisine and specialties. Just reading the title for each recipe will make your mouth water. And, while this is a seasonal holiday cookbook, many of recipes would be appropriate for everyday or weekend menu planning all year round. The Cabbage and Carrot Coleslaw with Lemon Mayonnaise is perfect for a summer picnic. The Silky Parsnip-Potato Soup with Crisp Diced Bacon makes a great rainy day dinner paired with the Heartland Cottage Cheese Dill Bread and one of the refreshingly light salads. Any of the tempting appetizers would do well at a cocktail party. A wide selection of dessert recipes is included, ranging from variations on traditional holiday pies to Honey-Roasted Bosc Pears with Sticky Toffee Pudding Ice Cream. The traditional turkey leftovers are remade into tempting entrees, such as the Turkey Enchiladas with Creamy Tomatillo Sauce.

The book concludes with suggested menus and valuable planning tips. The tips are practical and especially helpful for someone not experienced with entertaining a large group of people. The New Thanksgiving Table: An American Celebration of Family, Friends, and Food is an easy to follow cookbook offering a wonderful tribute to Thanksgiving culinary traditions.
