Hairy Bakers Christmas Special (2008)

BB167117@HAIRY BAKERS Chris

Synopsis

On brand-new motorbikes, the Hairy Bakers travel round the country cooking up their favourite festive recipes as they plan an early Christmas party for families who won't be spending Christmas together: fire-fighters, nurses, police and ambulance crews.

The Hairy Bakers' Christmas tour takes them from an indoor ski slope where they cook up Christmas pudding and mince pies for hungry snowboarders, to a turkey farm where they turn leftovers into a delicious turkey and ham pie.

They go to a Christmas tree farm to rustle up a festive chestnut soup and giant cheese straws and a prison in Cumbria where they make bagels filled with salmon smoked within the prison grounds.

At a Lancashire school, the Bakers and kids make festive biscuits to hang on the tree. And they drop in to Betty's Tea Rooms in Harrogate, to learn the art of making the perfect chocolate yule log.

The journey ends with a feast in the world's largest tree house. Full of festive cheer, lashings of mulled wine, reindeer and even an elf or two this is the first ever Hairy Christmas party.

  • Wheeeee!

    A week left to go before Christmas Eve and on TV the HBs drive up...I spend Saturday morning touring and laughing along...they jolt me out of my pre-Christmas frozen-with-fear numb-dumb-panic state of unpreparedness (though I've been decorating, shopping, cleaning all this month) into a wanna-be cook coming with bells on...ho-ho-ho...so I'll give it a go... thanks guys!

  • Just to say the chicken liver parfait with cranberry butter is fantastic. Iv made it for the last 2 christmas day lunches. It's a great stater. It makes very large portions it says servers 6. We did 8 it's worth all the washing up.
