Borough Market - Welcome to the Borough Market Festive Kitchen

 


Welcome to the Borough Market Festive Kitchen
From our home to yours this Christmas

 
One of the great pleasures of Christmas comes from gathering in the warmth of the kitchen to prepare food and share stories. Borough Market’s Festive Kitchen, a three-week programme of cookalongs, masterclasses from Borough Market's Northfield Farm, Bread Ahead and Turnips and interviews, will be summoning up some of that domestic chatter and bustle and projecting it via a live Facebook feed into the home of anyone who wants a bit of company and some festive cooking inspiration. Starting on 2nd December, three hosts – Angela Clutton, Bettina Campolucci Bordi and Edd Kimber (pictured above) – will each spend a week curating the entertainment, welcoming in an incredible line-up of guests, including Anna Jones, Gizzi Erskine, Romy Gill, Calum Franklin and a whole raft of Market traders. We'd love you to join us.

Cook along with top chefs, using Market produce

Among the highlights of the Festive Kitchen will be a series of evening guest chef cookalongs, starring Olia Hercules, Ben Ebbrell and a third very special culinary talent (to be revealed soon). They'll be showing us how to cook their favourite Christmas recipes and, forearmed with the recipe, you'll be able to cook along with them completely free of charge. And for added convenience  and guaranteed quality  anyone who lives in London can arrange delivery of a recipe produce box containing all the necessary ingredients, carefully selected from the Market’s traders.
