River Cottage welcomes the festive season with a Christmas Fayre as Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and his team offer up their secrets on how to enjoy the perfect Christmas holiday.
Santa Claus and the Snow Queen will be there, as, of course, will all the favourite River Cottage regulars, including Hugh, his chefs Tim and Gill, preserves queen, Pam Corbin, and foraging expert John Wright.
But the food will very much be the star of the show. In an evening of traditional festive British foods, look out for deliciously different ways to stuff a roast goose; a trio of recipes for that wonderful winter root celeriac; Hugh's take on a sweet chutney; luxuriously rich Christmas bread; and tips for how to fill the perfect hamper with hand made edible goodies.
They also share their road-tested hangover cures to aid the inevitable morning after the night before of pure indulgence.
The River Cottage team also create their own version of a wonderful Christmas grotto, minus the seemingly obligatory piece of tinsel, and make their own brand of Christmas crackers.
