Our Moms Favorite Store – Uaetodaynews

There’s a certain vibe we’re all going for on Thanksgiving. Whether you’re curating an elegant, multi-course affair or a casual, family-style meal, a menu that features only the classics or one that has unexpected additions, it’s likely that you’re still hoping to achieve one common goal: a feast that feels like mom’s cooking.

For many people, this holiday evokes nostalgia, reminding them of their mothers cooking a feast every November. Even if you aren’t trying to recreate your mom’s Thanksgiving flavors, I think we can all appreciate — and hope to replicate — the special touch that any mother’s care and skill adds to the table.

I love learning about the techniques and tricks that moms employ in the kitchen to make food delicious, get it on the table faster, and please a wide variety of palates. To find out how they do all of the above on the biggest food-focused holiday, I asked the Food & Wine staff what their mothers and mothers-in-law think are the best store-bought shortcuts for Thanksgiving.

Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix

For Beth Bennett, mom of Food & Wine editor Amelia Schwartz, grabbing two boxes of Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix is an essential part of making a family-favorite side every year. Bennett uses the boxed mix — along with several other ingredients like creamed corn and eggs — to make a decadent batch of corn pudding. She emphasizes that “This recipe is a winner every time. It’s so simple and delicious. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve shared it with family and friends.

“I usually like to use fresh ingredients and bake from scratch, but it wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without this corn pudding.” The home cook is far from the only one to use cornbread mix as a shortcut for a rich corn pudding, and our own Kimchi Cornbread Casserole recipe does the same.

College Inn Chicken Broth

Simmering stock the day after Thanksgiving is notably easier than doing it the day of. To start, you’ll have plenty of turkey bones and vegetable scraps available, and you’re also not working on six other dishes at once.

But you’ll still need stock on the big day, which is why you should take a cue from social media editor Alexa Rockwell’s mother, who says, “I always buy several cartons of College Inn Chicken Broth.  I use it for the gravy and to make the stuffing. It’s also perfect to pour over the turkey meat when reheating so it doesn’t dry out.”

Pie Dough

According to the mother of our associate editorial director of food, Breana Killeen, “I’ve been spoiled because we usually make just about everything from scratch, but the one thing I get lazy with is pie dough for the apple, pumpkin, or pecan-bourbon pie.”

If you’ve been stressing over making a pie crust from scratch, consider this permission to just buy premade pie dough this year. There are some great options available now, and we’ve even tested them all to help you find the best frozen pie crust out there.

Williams Sonoma Turkey Gravy Base

The trick to your best (and easiest) Thanksgiving gravy yet might be hiding out at kitchen and homeware brand Williams Sonoma. Our senior vice president and associate group general manager of food and drink brands at People Inc., Michelle Edelbaum, reports that her mother-in-law loves the turkey gravy base from this store.

She tells Edelbaum that “I buy it because it’s not salty. You mix it with milk or half-and-half, which I prefer because it comes out a little bit thicker, and you can keep it for several days. It’s always fresh when you want to use it and when you reheat it.”

McCormick Poultry Seasoning

With thyme, sage, marjoram, rosemary, black pepper, and nutmeg all packed into this single seasoning blend, it’s no surprise it’s become a Thanksgiving staple for Barb, the mother-in-law of our executive photo director, Tori Katherman. Barb recalls that “One year I ran out of the poultry seasoning and (the grocery store) was sold out, so we faked our own mix. The stuffing was okay but not the same.”

Take another note from this mom and mother-in-law and use the seasoning blend for than just the turkey. It’ll also come in handy for preparing chicken far beyond the holiday season.

Greenberg Smoked Turkey

This happens to be one of my favorite Thanksgiving hacks too, especially as someone who doesn’t enjoy cooking a whole bird and cares a lot about the sides. The mom of senior updates commerce writer Jason Horn opts for the Greenberg Smoked Turkey specifically and notes that “There’s no cooking involved. It arrives two days before Thanksgiving; you keep it in the fridge until Thanksgiving Day and then serve it at room temperature. The carcass makes a great smoked bone broth after the holiday.”

There is a wide variety of other pre-cooked turkeys available on the market these days — like the Popeyes Cajun-Style Turkeywhich is surprisingly good — and many of them are quite affordable. Pick one that suits your flavor preferences, whether that’s smoky, Cajun-spiced, or classic, and then turn your attention to the mashed potatoes, stuffing, and everything else.
