Last week’s PW featured a story on Cookstr, the online database of cookbook recipes that has just celebrated its one-year anniversary. The piece explained how Will Schwalbe and Katie Workman built a site that lets people access more than 4,000 recipes from 350 cookbooks—for free. Workman shared recipes for Perfect Roast Turkey with Best-Ever Gravy, American Apple Pie, and Whipped Sweet Potatoes. Here are six more of her favorite Thanksgiving recipes from the site, including one for using leftover turkey. For even more, go to Cookstr.com.
