We have a son who is studying at the Marriott School. When he was about three years old, our family was living in the Governor’s Residence in Salt Lake City.
Sam sits to your left, but you know him as “the doomsayer.” With each new project, he prophesies epic failure and marks every email urgent—including the one about not microwaving strong-smelling food in the break room.
Thanksgiving fast approaches. It’s the most important food holiday, and you need to impress your in-laws with a palate-pleasing side-dish. Look no further. Here Marriott School alum and chef Kent Andersen teaches how to whip up a sought-after stuffing that the whole family will still be talking about, even after the turkey-induced food coma wears off.
