Making a festive New Year’s menu is not an easy task, sometimes even for an experienced cook. So many delicious salads, unusual snacks, impressive desserts and spectacular hot dishes! It seems that it is simply impossible to cook them all. But it’s worth trying, the main thing is to approach the issue thoroughly!
In almost all families, a lot of attention is paid to the preparation of festive dishes for the New Year and Christmas feast. Chefs want to show all their skills and serve the best treats to the festive table.
Recipes for the New Year and Christmas table differ from each other. By the New Year’s Eve, you need to flaunt all your culinary talents and surprise guests with fancy and incredibly delicious treats. Aspic with beautifully carved vegetables, French-style meat, homemade pates, delicious snacks of vegetables, meat and fish, salads with products that seem completely incongruous at first glance – preparing a New Year’s table is a great opportunity to show imagination in the culinary field.
It is customary to prepare lean dishes and lemonades for the supper on Christmas Eve. Vegetable broth, buckwheat porridge with mushrooms, cabbage pies, fish dishes, stuffed cabbage rolls with rice filling and many other goodies can be created in any cook’s own kitchen. Be sure to give your household a traditional lemonade (compote made from a mixture of dried fruits and berries) according to old recipes.
How to Make a Homemade New Year’s Menu?
According to experienced chefs, there will be enough for 6-7 guests: 1-2 hot dishes, side dishes, 3-4 types of salads, several types of snacks, hot and cold, dessert and fruit. This average menu can be varied depending on the circumstances, for example, if there are children among the guests.
One of the secrets of a successful New Year’s menu is to cook several new dishes every year. At the same time, you should decide what you would like to make the main bet on: someone prefers to invest time and effort in preparing a complex hot dish, and someone – in a variety of snacks. If, instead of traditional olives and caviar sandwiches, you offer your guests glazed duck with grapes on skewers, your guests will remember for a long time how refined and unusual your festive treat was.
But in fact, there is nothing wrong with having only traditional dishes on the New Year’s menu, without frills.
These cupcakes are very tasty and fragrant. Perfect for home tea drinking. Children enjoy eating these muffins with milk. Do not be afraid of a large amount of vegetable oil, it does not dominate baking.
As mom comes home and says that she tried a delicious pie with a friend, I don’t remember the recipe, but there was condensed milk! Well, I came to find this recipe. I searched the web somewhere… I found it, changed it a little in my own way and it turned out delicious!!!
Biscotti stuffed with chocolate, condensed milk and walnuts. “This is an amazing thing: mega-calorie, mega-chocolate and mega-delicious) It’s really hard to break away, honestly!”
It would be more correct to say condensed milk. I’m offering you the blitz recipe again. Fragrant cupcakes are very good for both evening tea and morning coffee.
Very, very, very tasty buns. I recommend you cook them immediately. I’m just fascinated by them. Of course, I will bake them again and again. The filling can be any: fruit, jams, boiled condensed milk. I cooked from what I had at the moment – boiled condensed milk and orange jam.
Hello, dear friends! Do you like to sit in the evening with the whole family over a cup of tea? And next to that was standing in it… tender, cozy, delicious – homemade pie! Easy to prepare, with simple ingredients, but spectacular and stunning taste!
This is a perversion. Yeast cake dough rests in the refrigerator all night, which allows you to slow down the activity of yeast. The dough can be stored in the refrigerator for two days and frozen – a very versatile dough for a variety of baking. The dough for this pie turns out to be soft, tender, lush. You can experiment with the filling.
I want to show you another delicious cake with mascarpone cream.. I guess now that I have the opportunity to replace mascarpone cheese and make at home… you’ll want to try it in action)))
A quick tender dessert with peach flavor. Peaches can be replaced with other fruits (cherries or fresh berries). Creamy cheese dessert with peaches turns out to be very exquisite, drowning peach slices in a cold delicate cream of mascarpone, cream and chocolate will make you feel good.
