How do you feel about Christmas Dinner? It is a tradition that induces both joy and despair in kitchens up and down the country. For some it's a chance to reunite family and share good food, for others, it’s a series of cooking instructions and timings that just don’t add up.
Now, I love making lists so the whole timing issue and multiple stoves on at once isn’t something that throws me off, but there is one thing about Christmas dinner that I’ve always found a bit of a chore.
It might be the star of the show but roast turkey, as far as I’m concerned, is overrated. It’s an unpopular opinion to hold and a position that wins you few friends - or presents. ‘But it’s tradition’, I’ve been told over and over again, or the passive-aggressive, ‘well, what else would you have?’
