The Christmas Chronicles: Notes, Stories & 100 Essential Recipes for Midwinter

The Christmas Chronicles is the story of Nigel Slater’s love for all things associated with winter including the scent of fir and spruce and ghost stories, preferably read with a glass of sloe gin! With recipes, decorations, and quick fireside suppers, he guides the reader through the essential preparations for Christmas and the New Year, starting from November 1st to the end of January. This wonderful book, with its mouth watering pictures, has over a hundred recipes including perennial favourites like goose and turkey, mincemeat, traditional Christmas cake, along with recipes to make the cold months bearable such as hot smoked salmon, and salt crust potatoes with blue cheese and goat’s curd. Packed with feasts, folktales, myths and memoir, The Christmas Chronicles is the must have book for winter.
