Guy's Ranch Kitchen

19th Century Holiday Feast (3x10)

:

Guy Fieri's chef friends visit the ranch to prepare a 19th century-style holiday meal inspired by roast goose, figgy pudding and Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. Marc Murphy starts it off with a stiff pumpkin eggnog and a delectable roasted squash with sage, ricotta and pomegranate. He also roasts a whole fish in a crusted salt shell. Alex Guarnaschelli makes a cheesy potato-turnip gratin and roasts grapes for succulent black pepper-crusted chicken. Michael Voltaggio's tangy sausage balls are inspired by his mother's recipe, and he elevates simple asparagus with a rich mousseline sauce. Finally, Jonathan Waxman prepares dishes that would make any Scrooge smile: a pastry-encased Salmon Coulibiac and a crepe souffle dessert.
