One skill we should all master this festive season is the art of the last minute party. If there was ever a time of the year when you could expect unannounced guests, it would be during the festive season. The ability to throw together a delicious spread of eats and spirited beverages for an intimate group of loved ones is our favourite part of the party season.
Here are some useful tips on how to stock your kitchen so that you’re always party ready.
CHEESE
A cheese plate is the undisputed champion of the fuss-free entertaining world. Simply unwrap your chosen cheese, place on a wooden board, set a knife and voila! A ready-made appetizer. Our staples are a mature cheddar or Manchego, a traditional Brie or Camembert and a blue of your choosing.
