As Thanksgiving approaches, I’ve learned to cook seasonally appropriate meals. That way, all the side dishes we crave especially at the harvest season don’t need to get crammed into one day or meal, when the barest essentials of a turkey dinner more than fill our stomachs and the table.
At this time of year, especially, I enjoy making dishes that, if possible, are even more rustic and old-fashioned than our normal fare.
Like, for instance, cornbread.
