Just one last blog post now to wish you all a happy Christmas. If you are cooking Turkey tomorrow then you might like to read my Turkey Cooking Tips page. A couple of final tips tonight. Try and declutter the kitchen and get out everything you need tomorrow. If you are worried about oven space then just cook the turkey first, then take it out and wrap in foil and cover with clean towels to keep the heat in. This actually improves the bird by letting the juices soak back into the meat and it will still be lovely and hot an hour or so later, which is plenty of time to cook your roast potatoes and parsnips etc.
Good luck, relax and have a lovely Christmas.
Just a quick post to alert you to the new Rich Stein series tonight at 9pm on BBC 2. His shows are always an interesting mix of travel show and cookery and ideal viewing on these cold winter nights. As you might expect he has a new book out to go with the series.
Update: I’ve spent a few hours this afternoon looking at various Rick Stein books and DVD’s and produced a Rick Stein Gift Ideas Guide. If I’ve missed anything great please let me know and do leave a comment below on what you think of his new show tonight.
