Apple and Cranberry Chutney
This chutney, which would be at home in India or England, goes well with turkey, pork, or venison.
Butter Cookies with Raisins
In England, these crisp raisin-flecked treats are called Madeira biscuits-biscuit being the British word for cookie, and a glass of Madeira being a favorite accompaniment for this particular type.
Double-Berry Summer Puddings
These pretty mixtures of bread and sweetened berries are inspired by the classic English dessert called summer pudding. Begin preparing them one day before serving so that the bread will absorb the delicious juices.

Bread and Butter Pudding
Making bread pudding is a good way to use up day-old bread. Gary Rhodes creates this sensational version of the classic English dessert with cream, milk and egg yolks, so it is ultra-rich.
Ginger Cake
This dark, moist cake gets its deep flavor from blackstrap molasses, which may not sound appealing on its own but is wonderful in this cake.
Raspberry Fool
This recipe requires a little advance planning — the yogurt will need to drain for at least 8 hours.

Fillet of Beef Wellington
Some say it was his favorite meal, and others claim it resembled the boots that he wore. Whatever the case may be, the Duke of Wellington has a grand dish named after him, which became the entertaining extravaganza of the 1960s.
Fig and Fennel Bread
"I tried a fabulous fig and fennel bread at Clarke's restaurant while I was in London," writes Nancy Shrier of Rydal, Pennsylvania. "I'd love to have the recipe."
Do as the restaurant does and serve this slightly sweet bread with unsalted butter or with a variety of cheeses.
Chocolate Cherry Charlottes
You might wonder why we freeze the chocolate filling for these charlottes before baking them. The coldness prevents the chocolate from overcooking in the oven.
