Cooking Thanksgiving Dinner is now easy task and I
am sure the Harvest of 1641 was no exception for the Plymouth Pilgrim
Colony. You think you have your work cut out for you, they had 90
Indians show up and the feast lasted three days. There are many things
that you need to know about preparing a large feast even you are only
have 9 Indians show up at your house.
You will first need to decide all the side dishes
and number of people so you have enough and it is best to error on the
side of too much rather than running out. You do not want to get
scalped by any of your guests, additionally if they bring some food to
the meal such as the Indians did at the Harvest Feast which was
essentially the model for the Thanksgiving Holiday, then you need to
make sure they do not forget. By the way the Indians brought venison
to the first feast.
One of the most important things to remember when
cooking a turkey is that frozen turkeys can take up to twenty four or
more hours to thaw out.
