I'm going my extended family's for Christmas dinner and they just repeat
the Thanksgiving dinner, a practice I don't understand.
As I've done in the past, I'm going to make gnocchi in a turkey and
tomato sauce. I use turkey necks for the meat in what is pretty much a
ragu Napolitano. The gnocchi are flour based rather than potato and are
a lot lighter. It will make the meal a little more interesting.
