So you’ve made a delicious meal and you’re about to sit down to eat. Maybe you have friends over, or maybe it’s just you. Hold up! Are you forgetting something? Find out what Kelsey Nixon believes to be the most important step to making a good meal great!
When we got together and threw this year’s outdoor California Thanksgiving bash for The Kitchn I knew I wanted to have a centerpiece that was easy, colorful, and very California. This led me, naturally, into the easiest centerpiece I’ve ever created for a Thanksgiving table, and probably my favorite as well.
You too can do this; I swear it will only take you five minutes.
When it comes to cranberry sauce, I am a cranberry-plus girl. Cranberries plus dried cherries; cranberries plus booze; and in this particular case, cranberries plus figs. It’s not that cranberries aren’t good on their own (they are!); it’s just that they play so well with so many other things.
This is a rich, jammy cranberry sauce with dried figs and plenty of spices — the perfect complement to our California-inspired Thanksgiving menu this year.

If you show up at my father’s house with a bagful of fresh brussels sprouts to be cooked, he will howl and complain like a 3-year old confronted with liver and onions. Such then, is the sweet satisfaction of seeing this dyed-in-the-wool brussels sprouts avoider pick these roasted emerald jewels out of the pan and munch on them like candy.
