Roast turkey served in a puddle of rich gravy. Buttery mince pies between meals. Crackers with cheese and chutney. And endless lucky dips into the open tub of Quality Streets, rummaging to find your favourite flavours. Food is at the very heart of Christmas, with countless traditions centred around sharing beautifully-prepared produce with loved ones.
We rise long before the sun on Christmas morning to skin potatoes for the family roast, and savour leftovers sandwiched between soft slices of bread on Boxing Day. We slurp Bailey’s and flambé sticky Christmas pudding, before saturating it in cream. The subject of food is simply inescapable around Christmas time, which, for those who struggle with food noise, can make this time of year feel quite overwhelming.
