The Kitchen hosts have festive new ideas to enter into the Holiday Hall of Fame, and they also take a look at past favorites. First, Geoffrey Zakarian's magnificent main is Ginger Chili Glazed Ham with a Flambe Finish, and the hosts look back at previous sides worth sampling before Sunny Anderson showcases her Loaded Mashed Potato Bar. After a review of award-winning appetizers, Valerie Bertinelli makes her Pistachio and Pomegranate Cheese Log with Pomegranate Glaze. Then, a virtual cookie swap kicks off with Katie Lee sending her Easy Cherry Pistachio Biscotti Cookies to Jeff Mauro, who creates his Christmas Sweater Cookies and sends the traveling cookie tin to a special surprise guest. Finally, Geoffrey ends on a sweet note with his Pomegranate Punch.

The holidays might look a little different this year, but the Kitchen has tips to make the meal feel special and festive, even with a smaller crew! Jeff Mauro starts with Pastrami-Rubbed Short Ribs, and Sunny Anderson shares the perfect side with Beefed-Up Charred Veggie and Cheese Grits. Katie Lee makes Roasted Vegetables with Herbed Feta, Pistachio and Pomegranate, and Geoffrey Zakarian fries up Sausage and Parmesan Arancini. Cookbook author Eden Grinshpan shares the secrets to perfect Latkes - 3 Ways, and Alex Guarnaschelli serves up Chocolate Rum Balls. Finally, the hosts toast to a happy and healthy holiday season.
