Turkey banished

Cookery: WHAT are you cooking for Christmas? It is interesting to listen to people's plans, and compare them with - to my mind - the dreary inevitability and panic of "turkey and all the trimmings". 

Pondering the season

Cookery: FEAST and Fast: Food for Advent and Christmas, by Christina Rees (DLT, 2012), is not so much a recipe book as a cosy sit in Christina's kitchen, listening to her reminiscences of Christmases past, meeting her friends and family who breeze in, and pondering the meaning of Advent and Christmas with a selection of their recipes.

Inspiration in the crypt

Cookery: YOU are invited, on the St Paul's Cath­edral website, to visit its crypt, where there are "monuments to con­flicts and other outstanding achieve­ments in the cause of a better world". Nelson and Wellington are there, undoubtedly, but ranked among such must be a man who strives daily, with­out bloodshed, in the cause of a better world - Jamie Cairns, the head chef of the Crypt restaurant.

Odd, but worth a try

Terence Handley MacMath: Red beetroot with lavender and crushed blackberries; Spinach; Confits de citron

Virtuous indulgence

Terence Handley MacMath: Chocolate cake; Grand Marnier sauce; Pancakes
