Hi Lindsey, i was wondering if delias braised red cabbage from her happy christmas would be ok to make this week and frozen or if its best to leave it for a couple of weeks closer to christmas? Also wondered how long her shortbread would keep fresh in an airtight box? Was hoping to make it maybe a few days or a week in advance of when i need it... im trying to get extra organised this year!
Many thanks
Adam
When it comes to origin and tradition, the Italians know the value of their culinary heritage with each region celebrating the produce its rightly famous for. But how do you know you're buying the real deal?
The key is to look for the distinctive red and yellow PDO mark - Protected Designation of Origin. It’s your guarantee of authentic regional flavour, perfected over centuries and made to exacting traditional standards.

Hello Adam,
You can freeze it. It will be a bit softer when its defrosted and reheated.
We often make it 4 or 5 days ahead and cook it for an hour less (cool and store lidded container in the fridge) then finish cooking it on the day we eat it. If you do that you need to get it hot in the saucepan and then give it its final hour, covered as before over a low heat.
Kind regards
Lindsey
