Cheeses that melt well or have a rich, full flavour are ideal, such as young cheese and goat cheese. These cheeses work perfectly in warm dishes, salads and pasta.
It’s not just about the dish, but about the moment. Take your time, set the table nicely and create a relaxed atmosphere. That combination is what truly makes the difference.
Dishes that you can share create a relaxed atmosphere. Think of a cheese board, snack platter, small bites or several small dishes served together on the table.
Dishes such as savoury pies, salads and dips can easily be prepared in advance. This gives you more time on the day itself to enjoy together instead of spending it in the kitchen.
