View ProfileThese sweet potatoes put the old-school, marshmallow-topped casserole to shame. Maple-tinged sweet potatoes are mashed with sour cream and butter served, then whipped until ethereally light. Chef Marc's orange-infused cranberry relish cuts through all that rich sweetness with a pop of tartness and zesty freshness!

At his pioneering Manhattan restaurant, An American Place, Larry Forgione established himself as a visionary locavore and the "Godfather of American cuisine." His son Marc Forgione is the chef and co-owner of the eponymous Tribeca restaurant and Peasant. Thanksgiving is the Forgione family's favorite holiday and their meal honors the food and traditions of Native Americans (who were at the first Thanksgiving). Marc's crowning feat on Next Iron Chef was Battle Thanksgiving where he prepared an homage to the First Thanksgiving in 1621 without the turkey (he did venison). Similarly, Larry’s Thanksgiving dishes often pay homage to Native Americans by using native, local ingredients such as wild game, salmon, oysters, and sweet potatoes. Marc and Larry’s CookUnity Thanksgiving dish features some of their favorite family dishes using local ingredients - red wine braised short ribs, maple whipped sweet potatoes (originally created by Larry at an American Place), and brussels sprouts with bacon.
