Our friends at Historic Royal Palaces have an historical Halloween treat for us all this evening, between 8 and 9 pm (GMT). To join in, make sure you follow @HRP_Palaces or: #TowerGhosts at Twitter, and Tower of London at Facebook. This Halloween, join Beefeater Phil Wilson for a unique after-dark experience of the Tower of London's bloody history ... through the ghost stories told of its ill-fated inhabitants and infamous incidents.

I appeared on @bbcwm this afternoon, discussing historical food with @dannykellywords. I explained how #mediæval and #Tudor cooks used to balance sweet and savoury flavours. My expertise in historic cooking came in very useful one Christmas when I was presented with an enormous organic Turkey at 1am on Christmas Day and 'ordered' to cook it for dinner. I hadn't planned to cook that year so I had to improvise with what I had in my cupboards.
Ginger Turkey
Serve with a spiced sweet potato soufflé and fat-free roasted potatoes. Happy (very early) Christmas! Matthew |
