Food Christmas ideas for dh

[MaurineWayBack]

Food is probably what is working best for dh…
So far I’ve had cheese (Wensleydale cheese), pies and puddings
Pies: https://www.yorkshirehandmadepies.co.uk
Puddings: https://georgieporgiespuddings.co.uk

So very traditional type of food iyswim.
Any other ideas of what could work well?

Works well for what?

A gift for DH? A meal? Your post isn’t very clear what you’re asking.

What about a clootie dumpling??

Yes ideas on what could work well as a present fir dh this Christmas knowing these were very well received.

I’ve never heard about clootie dumpling before @Dolallytats but that sounds right up his street. Thank you!

It's a traditional Scottish fruit pudding, like Christmas pudding but lighter. My husband loves them, I have to get him one every year!!

There are also lots of charcuterie gifts that may be an idea.

Can you buy them? Where? My late Mum used to make me one instead of a birthday cake. I’d like to try it again but not sure I could make one.

You can get them from loads of places online, even Amazon, but that always feels wrong!! I like to buy mine from Scotland (im in london)
I usually get mine from Speyside centre, but I dont need one this year, my mum has already bought one for me.

What about scotch eggs? I've bought a selection of them from a scotch egg company before as a present for DH

What's your budget? Fortnum and Mason do some absolutely lovely biscuits and chutneys (I send a package to DH every year) and quite unique tea/coffee blends.

How about a selection of flapjacks from Brynmoor, or pork crackling from The Snaffling Pig.

Oat Pantry does the most amazing flavours of porridge. They’ve got a limited edition mince pie flavour atm. They’re nicely presented too.

Thanks. I’ve looked at the Speyside website. Hmm… looks nice. But big!

Oh thank you for all those ideas! The scotch egg idea and pork cracklings are excellent ideas too!

@LandSharksAnonymous now F&M are right up my street but dh … he is more of a builders tea and nothing else type of person 😁😁
hed enjoy the biscuits but he wouldn’t appreciate it iyswim

@MaurineWayBack F&M for yourself then...as a reward for putting so much effort into searching for DHs Christmas presents😀

@LandSharksAnonymous
Now that’s an idea I can get in board 😁😁

Truffles?

I’ve just bought from the Truffle Guys and they have some nice boxed sets. Also have 20% off at the moment.

Just wanted to say that the Yorkshire handmade pies are bloody delicious! we always buy three boxes at xmas, one for us, one for MIL and FIL and one for my parents- always go down a treat!

Butter Bike have some nice peanut butters.

I can't remember the name of the company, but I have bought my dad a large pork pie which had his name on the top in pastry (easily googleable).

Pastry products from Piglet's Pantry are always nice.

I'm buying my SIL a cream tea hamper from the Cornish Company. They also do pasty hampers.The Cream Tea Hamper – The Cornish Company

@sueelleker they have a cheese and ale hamper that would probably work really too. Thank you!

I got some for dh last Christmas. We might have got some more during the year because yes theyre really nice!

@Leeds2 i can see dh enjoying the savoury tea from the Piglet Pantry too.
Thank you.

I'm going to buy my mum some of these for her upcoming birthday! Thanks for the recommendation.

Just bought some mince pie porridge for my daughter and her husband's Christmas stockings! Thanks for the recommendation.
