Don’t-miss holiday must #4: New England Christmas food specialties and recipes!

Before bed on Christmas Eve, it’s customary to set out a plate of provisions for the man of the hour—the red-suited gift bearer known as Santa Claus. Cookies and milk are the traditional treat because it’s a widely accepted fact that Santa likes (and maybe even loves) cookies, but let’s say for a moment that Santa’s tired of chocolate chip. What if you were to leave St. Nick a locally inspired snack instead? Discover some unique non-cookie alternative suggestions for what to leave for Santa in New England, state by state, when you download our FREE guide Yankee’s Ultimate Guide to the Holidays in New England. And get three of our favorite New England Christmas recipes, too! French Canadian Pork Pie (Tourtière) is a staple of Acadian cooking, particularly around the holidays—it’s simply, cozy, and flavorful. It’s a great way to make use of leftover mashed potatoes, too, and can be served hot, warm, or cold (with mustard)—it’s delicious at any temperature. Or try our Lobster Pie recipe that is unapologetically rich and delicious—a holiday celebration food that every New Englander should learn how to make. Traditional, easy-to-make, and oh-so New England! And our Best Fruitcake Ever recipe is a modern twist on this traditional holiday confection that uses a mixture of dried fruits instead of the standard candied and glacéed fruits. Not only are dried fruits more readily available at your local market, but they also have a deeper and more natural flavor (not as sweet). Ground almonds help keep the cake moist during the long baking time, so you don’t have to keep soaking it afterwards. With clear and concise recipe instructions, you’ll see exactly how to turn your kitchen into a New England holiday extravaganza, when you download your FREE copy of Yankee’s Ultimate Guide to the Holidays in New England right now.
