For British households, Christmas is the biggest event in which the kitchen becomes a hive of activity - but for Americans, Thanksgiving represents just as important an occasion to get cooking.The traditional November holiday sees family favourites like roast turkey and pumpkin pie served all over the US and for the occasion one popular television programme, Americas Test Kitchen on PBS, has opened up the Thanksgiving kitchen to its viewers.Taking emailed questions from the public, the show reveals the secrets behind cooking delicious seasonal food.The Thanksgiving holiday has its roots in traditional harvest festivals and sees people gather with friends and family to give thanks for what they have in life.Preparing a beautiful meal for a large number of guests can be made all the more enjoyable with a second sink, perhaps on a freestanding island in the middle of the kitchen, such as the Bolero box160d sink from Franke.
