Editors’ Favorite Thanksgiving Recipes: The Savory

Turkey may get top billing at Thanksgiving, but for us the stars of the meal are always the trimmings. Here, Gourmet editors share the ethnic dishes and inventive sides that grace their tables year after year. Also see our favorite sweet recipes.

Polenta and Sausage Stuffing
Cornbread and grits are two of my favorite Southern foods, and this stuffing has elements of both: Buttery toasted polenta cubes are combined with a creamy, cheesy polenta. The mixture—studded with bits of Italian sausage—gets baked separately from the bird to ensure plenty of crisp bits. It’s only made better with a generous ladle of rich turkey gravy. —Alexis Touchet, Senior Food/Travel Editor
