    I became a Food and Nutrition teacher 23 years ago because of you! I just wanted you to know that my mum died 13 years ago, and we watched all your series together on our old sofa. I have a bit of a cry when I watch this every year now she is gone, but it brings back such happy memories. Thanks Delia, what an impact you’ve had on my life! I now make food memories with my 3 children now, using your recipes.

    For those who have an old fashioned pressure cooker you can cook the Christmas puddings in that, it cuts the cooking time dramatically and they taste every bit as good as when you steam them for 8 hours. And given that mum always had to cook 14 puddings every year (we all liked Christmas pudding, even in the summer) the pressure cooker meant she could cook them all in half the time.

After a quick Google search, I learned that her cooking shows were televised in the 90s. It's no wonder why I have this sense of nostalgia while watching her videos. I grew up in the 90s (I'm almost 35 now), and how I wish Delia's shows were televised here in the Philippines. But nevertheless, thank you for uploading these videos. Her presence, the ambience, the food, and just everything about her program is like a warm comforting hug, and makes you feel like everything is alright in the world. :)

    So I am an American, and when it gets Christmas time here in the states I love to go full British for the Christmas dinner menu, unless it’s going to be a handful of guests in which case I love Swedish meatballs with cranberry sauce and creamy mashed potato. Anyway I think this obsession got started as the result of reading Charles dickens when I was in the sixth grade. I never commit to a specific entrée, but ever since that one Christmas I have fallen in love with sticky toffee pudding, it’s my goal in life to have it every holiday season.

    Dear Delia, I just want to tell you that I made your rich fruit cake for my mother's 90th birthday in February this year. I made it in a 28cm round tin, before Christmas, and 'fed' it with brandy then covered it with marzipan, white fondant, and decorated it with silver cachous and nine white candles for each decade. and a white ribbon - very simple. I received many compliments from a hundred family members who attended the party. This is our go-to Christmas cake each year. Thank you, dear lady, together with warmest regards from New Zealand.

    My family is Greek and since my parents migrated in the late 60's to Melbourne, the one thing they adopted as our annual Christmas treat was the delicious Christmas Pudding. We don't have it at all another time except Christmas, and that makes it so special. This year I am looking at doing a very traditional English Christmas. We're not just Greek, we also have Japanese, Dutch, Polish so its always a mixture every time we come together. And I have to say, I don't cook anything Greek! I'm a mixed bag of whatever. this Christmas Pudding looks absolutely divine and I am definitely going to give it a crack.

    Thanks Delia! I love your warm homely approach to home cooking. You’re so down to earth and your a pleasure to listen to and watch, unlike the countless pretentious so called chefs. God bless you.

    While all Delia's recipes can be viewed online, I do recommend her books. 'Delia's Happy Christmas' is a lovely book, and I have notes attached to mine, including shopping lists. Her online cookery school videos are excellent as well. (all free)

    I have always been a huge fan of Delia and also the delightful Mary Berry.They show everything in their cooking making it easy for us to try,I especially love watching them preparing for Christmas.I so wish I could get back home again to live and have those gorgeous foods in the cold.Nothing compares to Christmas in Winter,it just isn't the same in stinken heat.Thank you Delia,I was salivating watching the end results of your cooking.🙏👍🥮🍗🎄☃️⛄🔥

    Beautiful! We do things a little differently in America but I think most people are going to be creative like you're showing us.... now that we live in an unstable time. The important parts of Christmas for our families will be the time we're able to spend and the tastes and smells of Christmas! All of the slow details will be important again. And I believe it will actually be a much better Christmas because of details and the love that we show when we spend our time! Thank you for this!
