Tip: Rather than making the traditional turkey sandwich the day after, Chef Delouvrier suggests shredding leftover turkey meat and making turkey croquettes.

5 cups leftover turkey meat, shredded
3 eggs
2 tablespoons cr�me fra�che
4 shallots, peeled and chopped
2 1/2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 1/2 cups flour
4 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups white or wheat bread crumbs
1 1/2 cups grapeseed or vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

In a large mixing bowl add the turkey meat, eggs, cr�me fra�che, shallots and parsley and mix until well combined. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours or until firm.

To make the croquettes, make quenelles using two tablespoons or roll the turkey mixture into small balls (about the size of a golf ball) and refrigerate on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper for 1 to 2 hours or until firm.

Just before the croquettes are ready, prepare a bowl filled with the flour, a bowl with the beaten eggs, and a bowl with the bread crumbs. When the croquettes are ready, first cover them with flour, then dip them in the egg wash, and then cover them with the bread crumbs. Reserve.

In the meantime, in a saut� pan over medium heat bring the grapeseed oil to approximately 350 degrees F. Gently place the croquettes into the oil and cook until golden brown on all sides. Drain the croquettes on paper towels and reserve on a sheet pan lined with paper towels in a warm oven. Serve.

Nek Chand's Outsider Art: The Rock Garden of Chandigarh

View This Product at Amazon

For fourteen years, Nek Chand secretly transported thousands of stones by bicycle from the Himalayan foothills to a secluded, government-owned jungle clearing. There he combined them with urban debris—corroded wires, sheet metal, bicycle parts, tubes, tires, multicolored tissue, glass and feathers—to make statuettes. In 1972, authorities stumbled upon his menagerie of elephants, horses, monkeys, birds, and figures and eventually decided to support his project at what is now the second most-visited site in India after the Taj Mahal. Authorative text, an interview, 140 illustrations, and a detailed site map pay homage to this singular fantasy universe. This book is published for the exhibition at the American Folk Art Museum (April 4-September 24, 2006).

D'Alembert's Principle: A Novel in Three Panels

View This Product at Amazon

From the author of Pfitz and Music, In a Foreign Language, here is a novel of great intelligence and imagination

D'Alembert's Principle is a fascinating historical triptych about memory and reason set in the rich and lavish world of eighteenth-century Europe. In Crumey's novel, a celebrated scientist, D'Alembert, looks back on his life, the splendor of the Paris salons, and his unrequited love for the woman who spent years deceiving him. Meanwhile, an exiled Jacobite dreams of journeying to the planets, and in a prison cell two unlikely captives discuss love, language and fate.

Like the movements of an elegant musical suite, these three interlocking stories form an allegory of human knowledge, grand in scope and magnificently entertaining. Deft, teasing, and sometimes deeply moving, this remarkable novel perfectly captures the spirit of a lost age.
