Holiday Food Traditions



We love the holiday season at my house. Like many other families we have many food traditions centered around the holidays. Some of the traditions date back 40+ years, such as my sister and I along with our Gram making stuffed rolled dates for Dad and tasty gingerbread cookies. Another tradition that dates back almost 50 years in our family is the classic Red Velvet Cake.

Another is my mother's glazed baked ham. It's a tradition that I still continue, studding the ham with whole cloves, decorating it with pineapple rings and cherry's and glazing it with a mixture of brown sugar, pineapple juice, whole grain mustard and orange juice. Here is a classic Pineapple Glazed Ham recipe from Epicurious.

We're creating new family traditions too. I've included one our our favorite traditions that dates back 20 years or so. It's the famous (or infamous) Mrs. Field's Cookies. My sister and I got together to make this recipe. I'll never forget the first time I made them, they turned out fabulously.

Perhaps you're planning on cooking a turkey for your Christmas dinner and have any questions we're here to help. We can help teach you how to roast a turkey and keep is moist and make it flavorful. We've got a fabulous turkey stuffing recipe and a recipe for homemade turkey gravy. You can check out all of our turkey recipes and turkey tips here.

Part of the magic of the holidays is making new traditions as well as honoring the old ones.
