The Technique: No-Cook
To show off the tangy freshness of cranberries, don't cook them at all. Chopping the raw berries in the processor gives them a coarse texture, which is great alongside the turkey and the trimmings. Plus, the recipe comes together in 20 minutes.
Pumpkin seed oil is available at specialty foods stores and from culinarydistrict.com. Look for pepitas at the supermarket or at a natural foods store.
