Swabian Stuffed Pasta Serves 4 to 6

1 to 2 leeks 7 1 ⁄ 2 ounces dry cured salami 1 bunch flat-leaf parsley 1 lb., 2 oz. uncooked sausage meat 1 lb., 2 oz. mixed ground meat (such as veal and beef) 2 large eggs Salt to taste Pinch of black pepper 2.2 pounds fresh or frozen large pasta sheets, such as extra-large lasagna sheets To make the filling, wash and trim the leek and slice it finely. Finely dice the salami. Wash the parsley and chop it finely. Put the uncooked sausage meat and mixed ground meat in a large bowl. Add the leek, parsley, smoked salami, and eggs and knead the mixture thoroughly. Cook a bit of the mixture in a small frying pan to taste for seasoning. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Separate the sheets of pasta and lay them out on parchment paper. If needed, cut the sheets so the sheets are square and about 20 x 28 inches in size, or as large as possible. Using a spatula, evenly spread a generous 1⁄3-inch of filling on each sheet. Next, just as though you were folding a piece of paper, starting at the narrowest edge of the pasta sheet, fold it over carefully to create a strip 23⁄4 inches wide. Fold this strip over about two more times until all the pasta dough and its filling is folded together flat. This flat method of folding pasta sheets is characteristic of traditional maultaschen — Swabian stuffed pasta is not ravioli. Using a cup, press down very firmly on the filled dough approximately every 4 inches. Then, using a knife, cut squares about 3 x 4 inches in size around the rings you have made. Firmly pinch the cut edges together with your fingers. Repeat until you have used up all the pasta sheets and filling. Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Gently place the meat-filled pouches in the water and cook them for 10 to 15 minutes. When they are done, remove them with a slotted spoon and keep them warm. Tip: Serve Swabian stuffed pasta in a beef broth. You can also serve them as a main course, warmed in melted butter and topped with pan-fried onions along with potato salad and a green salad.

There’s nothing we would rather say, Than “Have a Happy Thanksgiving Day!” And there’s nothing that we’d rather do, than give our thanks to all of you!

No-bake desserts make the It is the season for entertaining! Try your hand at these simple no-bake dessert solutions. * AMBROSIA SALAD: Ambrosia is a variation on a traditional fruit salad. While the name references a food enjoyed by Greek deities, most believe the dessert traces its origins to the United States. Although ambrosia salad can have different variations, many recipes begin with a dairy base (pudding, sour cream or yogurt) and then include different canned or fresh fruits, shredded coconut and mini-marshmallows. * PUDDING TRIFLE: Trifles are made by layer-

ing different ingredients to create a striated design. This dessert may include a variety of ingredients, from cake to cookie crumbs to fruit. Trifles also can be customized to fit a particular party theme. Match flavors to cocktails or other food being served. * EASY ICE CREAM CAKE: Packaged ice cream sandwiches can be turned into a tasty and simple dessert. First, purchase a box of ice cream sandwiches, then melt hot fudge and crumble cookies, like OreosÂŽ, into the fudge. Spread the cookie and fudge layer on top of the sandwiches and then repeat the layers. Finish by sealing

everything with a thin coating of frozen whipped topping. Wrap in aluminum foil and allow to set and harden in the freezer for a few hours. * FRUIT PIZZA: This is a refreshing and relatively healthy dessert to complement any occasion. Start by making a graham cracker crust, either by mixing graham cracker crumbs with melted butter and a bit of sugar and pressing into a pie dish or by simply buying one ready-made. (For a less healthy alternative, and one that requires baking, use a sugar cookie dough to make a cookie crust.) Mix whipped cream cheese with a bit of strawberry jam, marmalade

Yogurt doesn’t just have to be reserved for breakfast or a snack. Enjoy it in a delicious dessert, too. Purchase

To ensure your holiday dinner centerpiece lives up to expectations, follow these simple tips, from purchase to plate: 1. Buy the right bird. Finding a turkey that’s just the right size for your expected party is the start to a successful gathering. One common rule of thumb is to buy 1 pound of turkey per person – so for a 10-person meal, purchase a 10-pound turkey. Don’t forget that nearly everyone loves leftovers, so you may consider buying a few pounds more than necessary.

2. Be patient. If you opt for a frozen turkey, don’t rush the thawing process. For larger turkeys, it can take days to defrost properly. 3. Timing is everything. Finding the right amount of time for your turkey to spend in the oven is crucial but not always the easiest thing to do. For an 8-12pound bird, aim for 2.5-3.5 hours; 12-16 pounds for 3.5-4 hours; 16-20 pounds for 4-4.5 hours, and so on. The key is bringing the turkey to a temperature reading of 170 F. 4. Let it rest. Instead of pulling the turkey out of the oven and immediately carving it, give it a chance to rest for 20-30 minutes, which allows the juices to soak into the meat and moisten it up.
