Delia's Classic Christmas Part 3

[@Nails_By_Kimberlee]

Baking away in a cozy cottage like this at Christmastime in England just sounds like heaven to this Kentucky girl!

[@franjajorgaarnsek4316]

To this Slovenian gal too...

And sitting on the floor as her husband has a comfy armchair.

[@Thekatedelaney]

To this Florida girl!

Another Kentucky girl here and just watching this program makes me feel festive and cozy❤

[@m.e.kitson2188]

Ohhh it really is

[@auntfanny3266]

There is a very good reason why Delia is a definition in the Oxford English Dictionary. Here I am, on the longest day of the year, looking at Christmas food! Nobody else could make me do that.

[@deliasmithfan]

AuntFanny ha ha! So true!

[@jodifinnegan4453]

I watch these three Christmas cooking videos each year as the holidays approach. I love them! ❤️ Thank you Delia ❤️

[@lindalester7878]

This is the wonderful lady who encouraged me to cook. I always remember her saying and she repeated again in this video "We're not chefs were home cooks". Thank you Delia for the years of encouragement wonderful programmes and books.

[@qewtypants]

She had me at sausage rolls with drinks

[@susieathome9621]

Same here, I've lived here for well over 30 yrs now but my English traditions still win me over.

[@myhappynest6125]

Oh I just loved watching these videos. Better than the best Christmas movie. Thank you so much.

[@hunkhk]

So true .... Merry Christmas

[@libbytibby]

Agreed

[@beam8250]

I agree!

[@dorothyelizabeth1559]

Funnily enough - you are SO right! I’d watch any of her cooking over anything else.

DARLING DELIA , YOU HAVE YOUR HOME IS " WARM AND COZY " I LOVE IT . YOU APPEAR TO BE A " FINE LADY . "

[@pawspence1266]

From Upstate New York...You have touched my soul for Christmas entertaining. I have always loved Christmas in England...a cottage in the country...a fire burning...a Dicken's Christmas...Quality in both the content and delivery. Thank you!!

[@markcooke729]

Delia, PLEASE write another Christmas book and make another Christmas cookery series! The world needs you now this season more than ever! XXX

[@MistressQueenBee]

I grew up a second generation English Scots in Utah. I had a bit of a tough time, many people don't get the humour, language nor cooking style differences. I am now an old woman of 66, living in The Great State of Texas. This brought me Nan back full face. I did not realize or remember, I guess, just how much it all meant to me until watching these videos. What a brilliant Christmas treat I say, with tears running down me face. Thank you for the fine prezzie! Dear Delia Smith Fan- Happy Christmas.

[@deliasmithfan]

Koni B. Thanks for sharing what a classic British Christmas still means to you. Have a very merry Christmas in Texas!

[@ML-sy3bn]

Wonderful video. Mesmerizing, soothing, comforting and not hurried. Everything looks delicious.

Delia is amazing. After 25 years I still cook Turkey her way👍❤🍷🤶

So lovely to see Delia back on screen again, a Goddess in the kitchen. This was a beautiful cooking series to watch, very enjoyable. Your farmhouse looks idyllic. Thank you for uploading.

[@ann-louiseheaton5320]

Dec 1st 2024. Delia's Christmas programmes never age. I was brought up on Delia and still have a few of her books. Christmas and the Autumn ones are my particular favourites I still use today.

[@heatherforde8738]

You..and your home...are very festive and lovely! I enjoyed your video!

[@marcowen1506]

I am so happy that, after a long pause, Delia Smith is back on our screens. As many of us have said after a rescued dinner party, thank you Delia.

[@anndonegan5130]

Delia is the best. Cook. Always. Love her cooking

[@penelopesparrow]

Thank you so much for uploading this! As I'm in Australia I must endure a summer Christmas, I've endured them all my life and it just doesn't feel right. One day I'll have a proper, winter, English Christmas. Just like Delia! 😆

[@TheAufschrei]

I've just curled up with an afghan and a cup of coffee to watch these videos. Enjoyed them so much...thank you!!

[@adrianharies9849]

Never heard of her before I'm from Baltimore Maryland USA just got watching her Christmas videos. She seems very genuine and sincere about herself. I like her cooking style very comfortable in her manners. Never tried an English Christmas before be willing to try one out sometime. Delia's food looks delicious fit for king especially home cooking.

[@TheAufschrei]

I'm your neighbor up north in Pennsylvania :) I've never heard of her either, but I'm hooked on watching her now. I watched Nigella for years, but I think I'm becoming a Delia fan. These videos are wonderful.

[@adrianharies9849]

@@TheAufschrei Cool I hope she'll have more videos in the future. Never heard of Nigella is she good.

Nigella Lawson. She had a cooking series for years. Her videos are jammed with good ideas, and great to watch. Her Christmas series is the best.

Wow! I enjoyed your 3-part Christmas video very much. I love your country cottage and would really enjoy the holidays in such a lovely place. I'm American and married to a Canadian. His mum would make everything you created here, except the bread gravy. Never heard of that. Thank you for helping me get into the Christmas spirit. My favorite Dickens quote is "For it is good to be children sometimes, and never better than Christmas, when it's mighty Founder was a child Himself."

[@gailhenricks3044]

I have made a Christmas pudding for my Husband for 20 years. I have tried many recipes until I found yours. I use this every year. My children and I were never a fan of Christmas pudding until your recipe. It has united our whole family. This year my 30 year old son (youngest of 6) has requested to learn the Christmas pudding recipe. I sent him your video which I did not know existed until today. I suggested to do a total English Christmas just using your recipes. I can't tell you how excited I am about this. You don't know me but you have given me the best Christmas gift of all time. Thank you.

[@debrankine6453]

The brick pastry rounds are a riff on Moroccan warka, made one sheet at a time and all year long by Medina pastry vendors.

[@chriswest7639]

I thought so. Thanks

[@carolb.4837]

I am so delighted to find these videos ! I have watched many TV cooks over the decades but very few have come any where near St. Delia of Norwich. I like to think of my self as a competent cook but when I have made a Delia recipe, often so simple and straightforward, that’s when I get the compliments. Coincidentally,at this moment in time , on my kitchen bench, steeping in port, are the dried fruits for her classic Christmas cake. ……..To be made this afternoon and I know the cake will turn out perfectly. Thank you again for putting these programmes on KZbin x

[@deliasmithfan]

Thankyou Carol. What a lovely story. A strange coincidence as I baked my Christmas cake this evening too. I made the creole cake which is a tradition for us now. Enjoy your baking and happy Christmas!

ive never had the courage to actually make a dried fruit trifle...I always say Im going to, and then talk myself out of it. but that gorgeous marsala and panettone may have finally given me the boost I need

If you like dried fruit. You will love it. Eat with a good drop of thick cream. Its lovely

[@dtulip1]

I have home envy :D...love this Christmas series and I really miss Delia on the TV

[@orion8835]

I have lived in a cottage in England and had several Christmases there. With the fire. I used one of Delia’s cookbooks to make some things in addition to more exotic recipes I had for a large holiday party and it was a hit.

[@user-xp5qx8wg9x]

I've made those sausage rolls many times and they are always excellent. The panetonne dessert is REALLY good as are the sables, coquille st jacques, and the Cumberland sauce. Well worth making. I've never been disappointed with Dehlias recipes, she makes sure they will always work and are delicious.

[@MsDawnnee]

Best Christmas cook ever. My mum always used Delias recipes, and my Mum's name was Delia!

Delia is Christmas… my mother, who is now 82 still makes her cranberry sauce. I now make Christmas dinner but her cranberry sauce is always on the table ❤️

[@katherinewilley4368]

Our family love Delia, mostly because she has rescued me on more occasions than I care to admit!! She really is our "go to girl"....... "what does Delia say?" is a refrain you will hear often in our house. We have most of her books, and like her cooking, they are labours of love. Now we have two married adults who have introduced "Delia" to their respective spouses! Just as we were introduced by a Mother who understood that sometimes you need a "Delia" in your kitchen! And your life.

I had a wonderful time watching the 3 part show. Merry Christmas everyone.

[@kimberlygathings2936]

I absolutely love your cooking channel even tho I live in the states I have an aunt that was born and raised in England so I grew up with some of the traditional English dishes that she would cook and bring to Christmas dinner plus she also taught me how to cook them .
