Entertaining thoughts of throwing a sensational soirée, a fabulous
fete, or a perfect party?
Menu Developer Janet Mirsky makes it easy with this quick checklist
and helpful tips.
- Thin lemon slice in water
- Mixed nuts by the beverages
- Unusual dishes filled with candy around
room or on dinner table
- Ice cubes made out of lemonade for iced
tea make a delicious combination and won't dilute the drink. This
can be done with many non-carbonated drinks.
- Candied peppermint sticks to stir hot chocolate
or coffee
- Soften butter and mix in a fresh herb of
your choice or garlic and put in a pastry bag to make pretty flowerets
for your butter plates at each person's place setting.
- Don't just spoon a sauce over or under your
entrée. Drizzle it by using a pointed tip water bottle
to decorate the plate. (Flavored oils can also be drizzled on
a plate.)
- Chop a fresh herb and sprinkle it over the top and side of the
plate to give it a professional restaurant look.
- Put chocolate chips in a sealable plastic
storage bag in a microwave for a few seconds, cut a small hole
out of the corner of the bottom of the bag and squeeze to drizzle
on your plate or over your dessert.
- When storing salad that you have washed
for the party, put a damp cloth over it to keep it fresh.
- Brush egg white on fruit of your choice
and roll in sugar and let dry. This makes a great garnish or centerpiece.
- For festive drinks: Coat rim of glasses
for mimosas, margaritas or juice by moistening the rims with a
cut lemon, then dip in sugar.
