Prepare Today for Tomorrow

Daniel Leader Our ancestors knew a thing or two about preparing for the future that we would be well advised to learn.  I’m not talking about retirement accounts or simple IRA’s, I’m talking turkey.

Select a bird that is a bit larger than you need and you will have an abundance of turkey in the days after the holiday.  There is something endearing about a plate of cold turkey slices waiting in the fridge for your inspiration. 

For years I made turkey pot pies for dinner on the Saturday night after Thanksgiving.  Now that I am making paninis for lunch, I barely have enough!

Don’t skimp on the relish and be sure to serve it with plenty of napkins!

Turkey and Stilton Sandwiches with Cranberry-Orange Relish

1 cup (about 4 ounces) crumbled Stilton or other crumbly blue cheese
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
Four 1/2-inch-thick slices country hearth bread
12 thin slices (6 ounces) turkey
1/2 cup Cranberry–Orange Relish or any cranberry sauce or relish

Heat a panini or sandwich press according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Combine the Stilton and mayonnaise in a small bowl and stir until well blended.

Spread the cheese mixture on two of the slices of bread. Top with the turkey. Spoon the relish on top of the turkey. Top with the remaining slices of bread.

Put the sandwiches on the press, pull the top down, and cook until they are browned and crisp, 4 to 7 minutes, depending on how hot your machine is. Carefully remove from the press and serve immediately.

Dan --

Sir, you may be a serious gastronome. However, I fear that you are not a serious linguist.

Anyone with even the most rudimentary knowledge of Italian knows that the word "panini" needs no "s" at the end, since "panini" is already the plural form of "panino," the Italian word for sandwich. The only thing more annoying than "paninis" is the redundancy "panini sandwich," which I'm pleased to notice that you didn't use. ;-D

By the bye, the sandwich sounds delightful.

Warm regards,

Peggy

Turkey? Our ancestors knew about preparing...turkey, for the future? How in the world did you arrive at that conclusion?
