what are those gaping sphincters in the center

I want to do a goose again
I managed to pull off a duck instead of turkey 2 times and just lied and everyone was so happy with it
But when you tell them what it is they won't eat it

That's not a Christmas dinner, that's a Sunday roast

yorkshire puddings!

>>19993362
Yorkshire puddings, which even as a Yorkshireman I don't believe go on a Christmas dinner

>roasted duck
>pork roast
>caramelized potatoes
>brown sauce
>red cabbage thing
>risalamande for dessert

We have this every year. Typical Danish Christmas dinner.
I'd like to try goose, though

I didn't know you could mystery box live animals

this is the plan but we normally dont do much for cooking but we skipped thanksgiving this year.

Cajun turkey
meatloaf
cornbread
cream corn
strawberry rhubarb pie
cheesecake
mashed potato n gravy

>roast ham
>hawaiian buns
>date cake
>roast veg

This is the current menu. Never had a Christmas ham before so I'm very curious. I figured it would pair nicely with the hawaiian buns, and even if the pork is a bust, the buns will pick up the slack

Date cake cause I want to try making a no sugar added cake and I want to see if I can scrape by with dates and some stevia powder

Should be a decent meal, I hope

Turkey
Ham
Tourtière
Mash
Roasted carrot
Gravy
Cranberry sauce

Same on Thanksgiving, same on Easter. Year in, year out. Very cozy

We usually do a whiskey and maple glazed ham with a checkerboard score of course. Love those deeply caramelized burnt ends on it. Any advice for really amping it up in terms of sides anon?

we're doing salmon this year, and I'm very happy about that

>>19994977

If memory serves me correct, the mere mention of salmon ignites a culinary symphony in my mind. Picture, if you will, the moment when a pristine slab of salmon emerges, its glistening surface reflecting the journey from the depths of the ocean to the kitchen's domain. The alchemy of this fish, born of tumultuous waters and bearing the imprint of nature's artistry, beckons our chefs to orchestrate a masterpiece.

>meat
Family does a nice prime rib for christmas
>Side vedge
Brussels and carrots, probably whatever else sounds good that day
>taters
Gratin is the plan, if not then probably the mash chef John does for his shepherd pie.

>>19993348
Turkey and Ham

>>19993348
>What meat are we choosin lads ?
Slabs of turkey and pork
>Side vedge ?

Buttery mash and deep-fried roast potatoes.

My mouth is already watering, God I love Christmas!

Christ Almighty.
It's this year at my Mums new Kitchen.

So she usually opens with Crackers and Pate, Salmon with Cream Cheese or a Prawn cocktail.
Chicken or Split Pea and Ham Soup.
Followed by Roast Turkey with Stuffing (We've opened her eyes to just roasted stuffing in a pan, not just from the Turkey)
Roast Beef and Roast Ham dripping in Honey, all with their accommodating gravies.
Mashed Potatoes, Roast Potatoes, usually with Goose Fat, pigs in blankets, and Yorkshire puddings.
Carrots, Green Beans, Brussels sprouts with Bacon and Chestnuts, roast parsnips.

Then finishing with a Trifle, some M&S Cakes including Cheesecake and Chocolate Cake, and a selection of cheeses and crackers.

Yep.

why do you want to substitute sugar outside of dates with sugar inside of dates ?

if it's about the evils of refined sugar, why not use less refined sugar ?

that said, date cake is the shit.
there's a great recipe on bon appetit for a date cake with toffee sauce .
the sauce really helps the cake but if you really want to save on sugar consider pairing it with simple creme fraiche.

I'm going to get a whole fish of some kind Saturday before Christmas Eve. Whatever looks good.

how would you pull off duck instead of turkey to someone that wasn't mentally retarded

>>19995788
When you're a liar who has never cooked either and never had duck or goose, like the motion in some other thread who said that she roasts duck just like chicken lmmfao

>>19995788
You know the "tastes like chicken" meme is a real phenomenon because most people are tastelets
