This vegetarian pithivier – a round, enclosed pie made with puff pastry that originated in France – is packed with a bounty of beautiful seasonal flavors, including chestnuts, clementines, dried fruits, and aromatic herbs. This dish does take a little time and requires attention to detail to prepare, but the end result is more than worth it. It'll look particularly pretty on your table, and works well with all the usual Thanksgiving trimmings.
