This stuff's nice, I'd eat it all year round but it's not in the shops other than at Christmas:

+1 (well, actually +9)

Quaff these every Christmas, and they are the only Christmas essential.

Some of the best ones are those that use a well-established dough. The Arden & Amici Panettone are pretty good.

Allow them to warm a little so that it softens and moistens. But not in an oven, since that dries them out. Panettone aren't great dry. If you get a dry one, make a panettone bread & butter pudding.

Dauphinois potatoes - probably the slowest and unhealthiest way to cook potatoes. Only time of the year we bother and adds flavour to the previously mentioned bubble and squeak.

Turkey and stuffing curry

Carp fish.

Always spit roast a Porchetta over the Barbecue using charcoal and Myrtle wood exactly same as traditional Sardinian method except stuffed with Morcilla and apples stewed in Armagnac and fennell.
Rub the crackling belt with salt, garlic black pepper and Armagnac.
Serve with a side of Porcini Risotto with a bit of shaved truffle ,crisp Parsnip game chips fried in rendered bacon fat and traditional separate sage and onion stuffing.Peas and stewed apple sauce.
Never any room for pudding.

Battered pigs in blankets...

it is the season for bubble & squeak every other day


This is the first of the season, although it will only have been a few weeks since i did it last




I also have some pork curing in a brine that started off as mulled cider.... should be interesting

I enjoy cooking breakfast of choice for the other 3 maidenfans in the house, toasted panettone sandwich with real chocolate in the middle for my eldest, proper bacon butty for my youngest and buttery scrambled eggs on sourdough for Mrs Maidenfan.
I really look forward to sprouts with loads of black pepper cooked so they are still firm(ish).

actually i was lying about the coal to try to make people think i'm middle class.
the truth is that i can only afford gruel, but i aspire to coal.

for heating i burn cars.
