Gingerbread Layer Cake

This cake was adapted from a recipe by Claudia Fleming, who developed it while she was the pastry chef at Gramercy Tavern in New York. To make the garnish, wash the cranberries, and while they’re still wet, roll them in granulated sugar.

Steamed Green Beans With Ginger Butter

This Pan-Asian side dish is designed to be prepped ahead and quickly assembled while the ham is resting. You could also use broccoli instead of beans.

Petite Pommes Anna

You can make these potato cakes up to the first stage of cooking and keep them at room temperature up to 4 hours. Then, brown them in the oven while the ham is resting.

This recipe works best with moist squash such as butternut or acorn. It’s also delicious using the roasted flesh of spaghetti squash.

Mini Cheese Balls

Roll these tangy spheres of chèvre in earthy poppy seeds, smoky chopped almonds or minced chives. (You could also try toasted sesame seeds, chopped pistachios or za’atar, the Middle Eastern spice blend.) Add a little sweetness with a drizzle of fresh honey.
