Hmm.. Not long till chrimbo huh? ;-) .. Was wondering what everyone ate on the big day as not everyone likes Turkey, perhaps ur a vegetarian who knows?! Anyhows lets discuss the traditional xmas lunch before the big day lol :-D
Posted by london-uk
Well, I'm originally from Denmark where it's traditional to have roast pork or goose. Not really a big fan of turkey myself, I think we're going to try one of those geese which has been stuffed with pheasant and then chicken. Might be interesting...

Ive never tasted any Waterfowl before whats the difference btw that and chicken? :-)

My Christmas lunch with colleagues (
) is on the 20th. Needless to say, I have booked off the next day (Tuesday). I'm vegetarian, but after a few beers might be tempted to go for a breast or thigh

Normaly cook Turkey, Beef and Chicken with veggies, spuds, Yorkshire puds etc. Not everybody in our house likes the same things.
Fortunatly, I like a bit of everything. I'm not afraid to experiment and try new things

I'm getting shiba for christmas might also eat some boji (fish dish but can be quite expensive)--you can't beat korean food!

It is very difficult to explain the difference in taste... Perhaps by analogy the difference can be explained. Imagine that the chicken is a very light Beaujolais Village, which has been chilled to approximately 15C (i.e. very light and fresh, however lacking any bite or real bouquet, though still refreshing). Then contrast it with (the pheasant) a full-bodied port or madeira, in which you will have a rich body, and a silky smooth experience.
I suppose you can tell that I am a fan of the finer things in life. I do however hope that I can convince you to try something a bit more gamey than chicken!

I enjoy cooking very much now.. with time to do so etc, loke being creative etc
@ All... seems lot's of you enjoy waterfowl, thanks for trying to explain the taste difference's to me, I may try it, altho.. as I kept a pet goose many yrs ago id be very put off to try a cooked goose, or even pigeon!
This yr as always in my household we'll buy a Huge turkey so it lasts a few days, in this result we'll be having turkey sandwiches, currys for a few days lmao.....

@miss uk
One of the "few" people to do a degree in media. I completely recognize that a 'media degree' is now fairly usual. However, what do you hope to use it for? This area of study has always fascinated me...

@london-uk
Is that a note of sarcasm I detect?
