If I have my fully functioning garden. There would be a mountain of homes grown veg for Christmas dinner. I think my record is 9 different veg. But the must for me is spouts. Like you JJB, not messed about with, and definitely not cooked for so long as they turn yellow & mushy! Also red cabbage in a sticky red currant & red wine sauce. Leeks in a cream & whole grain mustard sauce. Roast potatoes and stuffing (if it’s turkey or goose).
Unfortunately no tradition in Christmas baking. I always forget to late, I do want to make my own mince meat for homemade mince pies one day. It’s on the list of stuff I want to do in my home.
Other traditions I have to watch a muppets Christmas Carol on Christmas Eve with a couple of mince pies and a glass of Sherry or mulled wine. Not done that for a couple of years because they stopped putting the movie on free tv channels. But this year I’ve treated myself and bought it. So the tradition is back on .
