This collection of Christmas recipes from Delia Smith includes five different Christmas cakes, a complete vegetarian menu, recipes for gifts such as chocolate truffles, and many traditional favorites. There are also ideas for festive occasions from drinks parties to dinner parties, with dishes such as Roast Goose with Potato, Sage and Apple Stuffing, Caramelized Orange Trifle, and a Terrine with Four Cheeses.
I guess Delia is very well known in the UK - maybe like Julia in the USA. I discovered her thru a forum on line. What a piece of good luck. I have now made several of her recipes and enjoyed success from compliments and second helpings. I like her companionable way of writing instructions and tips

I have owned this book for a number of years and have been using it ever Christmas. I would recommend anyone that is accountable for making Christmas lunches and dinners to get this.
A stalwart at Christmas time.

I've owned this book for years and utterly rely on it during the madness that is Christmas. Beautiful traditional recipes and some different twists on Christmas lunch/dinner. Essential reading.

Wonderful recipes for any time, but particularly Christmas. I enjoyed Delia's mincemeat strudle at an English friend's house, made with Delia's delicious mincemeat recipe - not at all like the ghastly, oversweet stuff you buy in jars. Just had to order a book for myself.
