Had a long, busy morning last week: 2 big Christmas puddings and 21 little ones (they will sit in a cool cupboard for up to a year); braised red cabbage (in the freezer for the big day); pork rillettes (a sort of bottled pate for entertaining); loaf and 6 loafettes; fruit salad compote; weighing out for Christmas cakes (make good gifts too).
The sous-chef just loves his Christmas puds so I try to make enough to last the year – one small one is enough for two of us for lunch.
