Christmas

This holiday, we’re celebrating by sharing the load of making the feast. Everyone brings their best dish—and everyone digs in.

Fingerling potatoes, with their firm and flavourful flesh, are perfect for topping with dill cream, capers, smoked salmon and a few pomegranate arils, which add a sparkling touch. It's hard for them to go unnoticed in the centre of the table!

These festive cheese balls can be prepared in advance and served on a cracker.

The original recipe for the persian, a beloved Thunder Bay, Ont., delicacy, is a closely guarded secret. This cookie spin-off keeps the spirit of the original cinnamon-scented fried dough topped with berry-tinted icing.

These well-spiced cookies are a holiday tradition in European countries like Belgium.
