A New Mexico Thanksgiving Dinner

 from @NMMagazine, a menu to have you giving thanks for the state’s bounty of singular ingredients


Back when the Pilgrims were still boys and girls in England, Don Juan de Oñate and his band of explorers enjoyed a feast of thanksgiving in 1598, near Las Cruces, as recorded by Gaspar Pérez de Villagrá, a poet who traveled with the expedition. That’s all the excuse we need for a Thanksgiving feast seasoned in New Mexican style. I always look forward to local flourishes that add zest to the traditional bird and trimmings.
