3 festive sharing recipes

Whether you’re having friends over for a few drinks or hosting a full-on festive buffet, we’ve got three great recipes for sharing over the Christmas season. Hearty and full of flavour, these are sure to be crowd pleasers.

  1. Cheese dip and dough ball wreath

    In this dip and dough ball recipe, a trio of Gruyère, Comté and mature Cheddar are melted down with a splash of lager to create a creamy, tangy fondue. Serve with our cheat’s dough balls for dunking. Fluffy and light, they are made using a shortcut sourdough mix brushed with a garlic and rosemary glaze.
