I also make my own lemon curd tarts, and make the lemon curd to put in them.

No. Put butter, eggs, caster sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice in a bowl on top of a pan of simmering water until melted, leave to cool then sieve into a jug then decant into a jar.

I (Luke) love mince pies but am prone to overdo them.

I don't know if Hannah has had one (they may not be a thing in the US) but I'm pretty sure she won't like them because she doesn't like raisins.

I feel like I should frogmarch you out of the forum for your Christmas crimes. That's a horrifying admission to make.

However I'd also definitely join you in utterly decimating a whole box of mince pies as soon as nobody's looking, because they are fucking delicious!

Love them, used to buy the cheap ones from lidl/Aldi, thought they were great. One day I decided to buy the specially selected one's with cognac and suddenly the 'delicious' cheap ones had become terrible

I wish I hadn't bought the dear ones because it changed my taste buds and now I'm more out of pocket

Home made ones with puff pasty are lovely.

Shop bought ones tend to be stodgy.

I like them but not in October

I really like the Aldi "Holly Lane" ones! The pastry is nice and short, the mincemeat is a perfect balance of sweet and spicy, and they're nice and deeeeep!

That being said, I haven't tried any super-posh ones. I may well end up going the same way as you if I do...
