Heading up to Sissies in a while to make pies. I got the Prime Rib, and it was very pricey but will be worth it!
Made eight pie crusts yesterday and four gluten free crusts.
Of course, the entire kitchen had to be deep cleaned after the first batch of crust as I did not want to cross contaminate regular flour with gluten free, so it was a longer process than normal, but it is done.
I will say that the gluten free crust went together very well for the first time. I am getting the hang of working with this flour as well as almond flour, which is also gluten free, but has a somewhat nutty flavor.
I will spend the night at Sissies and then start prepping in the morning. So prime rib, mashed potatoes, Brussel sprouts with bacon, Aus jus gravy and popovers! Will make both regular and gluten free.
Sissie will make pumpkin pie, and I am making apple. Will do two small gluten free crusts for our friend so she can have both pies!
I have found if I make my popover batter early and let it come to room temperature; they cook up so much fluffier.
I also bought olives and will have my famous smoked salmon dip for appetizer with toasted gluten free baguette and gluten free crackers. Bought some sparkling apple and cranberry cider for most and of course I will be drinking wine!
Should be a great time with Family and friends.
Now I am going to run to the store and get flowers for the table!
Here is wishing everyone the happiest of Thanksgivings!
Gobble, gobble, but no turkey for us!
