December
Richly indulgent, December is the most satisfying month for festive treats, even if nature isn't at its most productive. From toasted chestnuts to tart cranberries, this is a month that celebrates a colourful collection of great culinary tradition, culminating with the great Christmas dinner and all its glorious trimmings.
Brussels sprouts
When cooked with care, brussels sprouts have a delicate flavour, fresh green colour and crisp texture
Cranberries
A perfect partner with roast turkey, tart-tasting cranberries make good preserves and work well in drinks
Chestnuts
As versatile as they are tasty, roasted chestnuts make a warming snack, and when pureed, add richness to dressy desserts
