A Few Additions to
The Traditional Thanksgiving
For those of you who had the pleasure of dining at Robert's of Charleston during its many years in existence, it will be easy to understand the excitement of attending a cooking class presided over by Robert and his wife, Pam. We were fortunate enough to be among those who signed up for the couples class that was held last week at the beautiful new Kitchens By Design facility in Mt. Pleasant. And what an evening it was! In addition to the numerous recipes prepared by the Dicksons (and tasted by their appreciative audience), Robert sang a number of songs we remembered hearing during meals at his restaurant.
Watching the preparation of Mousse of Scallops, Breast of Duckling Orientale, Chateaubriand with two sauces, French Bread, and Triple Chocolate Tart, (among other delicacies) during one "class" has inspired us to get busy and try some new recipes. Once we have perfected some of the ideas we have in mind, we will be sharing the recipes with you. Meanwhile, we assume everyone has decided on a main course for Thanksgiving and so we are providing some dishes to go along with the turkey or other entree of your choice.
