Gingerly sweet: Our 2022 ham glaze
Sometimes it's like we have a list of flavours all over the wall, throw a few darts and see what it hits. The flavours in this glaze might not be what you expect, and the glaze itself hits quite sweet, but once on the ham and baked, it just sort
Beetroot & Sourdough Panzanella
If you want something a bit different on your Christmas table, may we suggest this hearty and colourful panzanella salad. A few special ingredients worthy of a Christmas spread, this salad would be perfect on a table with a traditional roast, but fits in just as nicely on our more
Apple & Walnut Salad
We created this salad to complement the apple flavours in our 2022 Christmas Ham.

Wedgie 'lad

While absolutely mouth-wateringly yum, there's really nothing especially festive about these, aside from the treat yo'self vibes they give off.

Our favourite... leftovers
Christmas lunch is finished, tummies are full. The dishes are being stacked away, somebody's uncle is asleep on the couch, the kids are rapidly descending into their sugar crash and the leftovers are being wrapped up. The leftovers. So. Many. Leftovers. Or, as we like to think: The leftovers! So!

We're a little obsessed with ham glazes - they give our delicious, juicy hams an extra burst of flavour and really make a centrepiece for your table. Every year we try to come up with a glaze recipe we declare our BEST EVER! but really, so long as you're hitting
The Sweet'N'Hot Glaze
Our 2021 ham glaze recipe, full of zing and belly warming spices - and quite possibly the easiest glaze to make. 🍽️Tip: This quantity will glaze a half Champagne ham with perhaps a little left over. Double the recipe for whole hams. Leftover glaze can be kept in a jar
Chewy peanut butter chocolate slice
If the smell of this being pulled out of the oven doesn’t make you swoon, we don’t know what will! 🍽️This recipe, which uses just two eggs, is handy when you only have a couple of eggs left before a stock-up shop. To make this gluten-free, swap out
Freedom Farms Beer Brats
A Wisconsin classic - bratwurst sausages and sliced onions simmered in beer, finished on the grill, served in buns with sauerkraut and mustard. Makes 6.
