This delicious episode is all about festive feasting – from the main event to all those gatherings and feedings in between. I adore cookbooks and share a lot in this episode, along with some other food-related delights. I hope it gets you flicking through your own recipe books and planning for some special time around the table this year.
This episode includes:
- Snippets from some of my favourite Christmassy cookbooks
- Tips for reducing the stress of Christmas cooking, and being mindful of costs
- A story about the day it all changed in our household
- Some ideas for laying your Christmas table
- Christmas (food-related) traditions from around the world
- Two super simple recipes
- Get ahead tips before Christmas arrives
- PLUS a lovely giveaway (enter at @bethkempton on Instagram)
