It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Mushroom And Onion Gravy

- #75747
Good gravy makes all the difference on a thanksgiving plate. Put those extra turkey juices to good use by making a thick roux and throwing in mushrooms. Perfect on turkey, of course, but also on mashed potatoes, stuffing, and more.

ingredients
1/4 cup butter
1 large onion, halved, sliced thin
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup fat from turkey, or use butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups turkey juices plus added chicken stock as needed
salt and pepper, to taste
directions
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until soft. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
In a large saucepan, heat the fat (or butter) until hot. Quickly stir in the flour and mix until smooth and blended. Let the mixture cook, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes or until bubbly.
Slowly whisk 2 cups of the stock into the flour mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until the gravy is smooth. Let the gravy simmer for 5 minutes. Thin the gravy as needed with additional stock.
Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the reserved mushrooms and onions and serve immediately.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
