I wonder what roast Hedda is like ?
something so old and tough probably needs to be simmered gently over a slow heat for several days !

on the other hand I had some amazing Duck Confit a week ago cooked by renowned chef Tony Bilson. Deeelicious.

As for bugger turkey... well, Hedda, there are times when I am desperate but never THAT desperate.
The meal was utterly fabulous; all worked tremendously (a pinch too much black pepper in the bread sauce). Chilled white wine (Sancerre). Turkey giblet gravy (I love the liver/kidneys in the giblets). Just fabulous. Happy Christmas everybody.

had some Aldi champagne last night and it was rather good- as is their Gin.
but I still say..bugger Christmas and bugger Turkey.

Most threads end up with around 10,000 views but it usually takes months.
I made the mistake of telling Deniz the cost of my turkey and had my ear bent for 10 minutes.
Deniz is the King (or Queen) of decorations; talk about Aladdin's cave. It's absolutely gorgeous and resplendent with baubles and bangles, some of which are 50 years old.
