Aperitif: Champagne.

Starter: Crayfish tails and smoked salmon.

Main: A cockerel I won at my club xmas shoot, gammon and all the trimmings.

Dessert: Various cheeses or xmas pud.

 

I have a very good Italian friend who worries about what I drink in England. He sent me over this year two bottles of red, a Barolo and a Brunello di Montalcino with two half bottles of Recioto di Gambellara for cheese/dessert. No supermarket stuff for him, only top flight producers so I shall drink, savour and enjoy. Buona salute Bruno :friends:

Sounds lush.

 

I butchered my turkey today, am doing it slightly different this year so have boned out the legs and will stuff them with sausage meat and cook them next to the main joint. Have crowned the rest and made amazing stock with the wings and bones.

 

It's a Norfolk Bronze so should be good. Really red flesh, looks like beef.

I'm just about to tuck into a starter of home smoked salmon with potato salad and caviar. Formmain course I've done pheasant, partridge, chicken, slow roast beef brisket and venison with braised red cabbage and a mountain of roast spuds, bread sauce and sprouts cooked with bacon and chestnuts. Pudding will mostly be black forest gateau or cheese. On the table we have a btl of champagne some Pinot grigio and (for

Me) a magnum of 2002 chateau de terrefort quancard Bordeaux superieur.
