Well let me be the first to wish you all a very Happy Christmas!!! Because the University term ends soon, I wanted to get in early to help you with your Christmas food preparations before you go.
This is such a fantastic time of year, with some amazing fresh produce available. It’s a time of year when we all do a lot of cooking for friends and family so these seasonal hints will help you out:
- Buy the best quality you can afford, use seasonal produce and support local growers.
- Root vegetables are fab; try red cabbage for a change with some sweet apple also bang in season.
- Why not buy some fresh cranberries and make your own relish? Really simple and so much better than that rubbish you buy in a jar.
- Try piercing some fresh chestnuts with a knife, roasting them through the oven, peel and eat whilst still hot. Amazing.
That’s all from me I’m off to stuff a big turkey!!!!
Have a good one
Simon
