In this month's issue

"Anyone who knows me knows about my obsession with cheese, so it felt only fitting to make British artisan cheese the star of our
special celebration issue. Paired with mince pies, croissant crackers and spicy piccalilli, it makes for the perfect sharing board. Plus, there are health benefits, too – as our feature reveals, there’s no need to feel guilty about indulging. It’s Christmas, after all.

From the cheeseboard to the globe, our Christmas Around the World feature takes you on a culinary journey through festive dishes and traditions that bring people together in joyful, delicious ways, with recipes from Sri Lanka, the Philippines, Ukraine, France and Italy. For the days that follow, our Twixmas ideas offer smart, sociable dishes, from chipotle turkey tacos to an irresistible cheesecake inspired by the Dubai chocolate trend. And, as the year draws to a close, our tropical New Year’s Eve party brings sunshine to your table, proving that a touch of escapism pairs perfectly with fizz and friends. Wherever and however you’re celebrating, I wish you a very happy Christmas and a flavour-filled New Year."
