Final Hours to the Next Year: The New Year's Eve Menu.
When it involves hosting celebrations, guests usually divide into two rather distinct camps: the ones that adore the process, and the ones that would choose to do almost something else. Being prepared in advance is essential, and choosing a few scrumptious dishes to start the festivities will entertain your attendees while you aim to keep the show on the road.
Fennel, Lemon and Smoked Paprika Almonds
These tangy, spicy bites make for a excellent pairing for the vibrant pink grapefruit mocktails detailed below.
Salmon & Ricotta on Buckwheat Blinis
A scrumptious festive first course that can readily be adapted to serve with a fruity topping for younger guests.
Pink Grapefruit, Cardamom and Lime Mocktails
These concoctions are a zesty alternative to alcohol, but also make a tasty base for a gin-based cocktail.
Juniper and Lemon Martinis
Handcrafted gin for a special celebration cocktail, perfect for gifting or serving at parties.
Tender Lamb with a Zingy Sumac and Onion Salad
Revel in the glory of this show-stopping centerpiece – no one will possibly realize how minimal work was required.
Festive Chocolate Cranberry Tart
In this decadent dessert, puddles of warmly spiced cranberry jam are baked into a chocolate frangipane for a combination that puts any extra of cranberries to delicious effect.
