When preparing a festive table, you must take into account many important details from its design to the composition and serving of dishes. Some housewives manage to achieve a sense of the holiday only due to design tricks and beautiful design of everyday dishes, which they get the most delicious. Knowing a few secrets, and you can cope with this difficult task.
When you find out that you have to set the festive table, start by thinking about the menu. This time, you should not experiment with new, albeit proven by other housewives, dishes. Include in the list those that you have already prepared and which always enjoy continued success. At the same time, of course, one should take into account the fact that they should look quite presentable on plates.
You can exclude the first from the menu, unless, of course, you are gathering guests for a festive dinner. For a festive dinner, prepare a prefabricated meat hodgepodge or onion soup in French - it is both tasty and looks very impressive when served, sprinkled with grated cheese and herbs. For the festive table, fish soup of noble breeds is also suitable: sturgeon, sterlet, etc.
For the second on this occasion, it is better to cook both meat and fish dishes. In order not to get tired by the time the guests gather at the table, and have time to put yourself in order, cook them baked in the oven. Pack a piece of meat, duck or chicken in a culinary roasting sleeve and just keep in the oven for the allotted time. Bake the fish in portions in foil on a vegetable pillow. For this, river trout or steaks from any red fish are suitable. For a side dish for meat or poultry, you can bake large pieces of potatoes in the same oven.
For short-cooked gourmet snacks, boil beef tongue. You can make stuffed mushrooms baked in the oven, stuff eggs with red or mushroom caviar. Be sure to prepare several vegetable, fish and meat salads. Do not forget to put them in a festive dish and decorate with greenery beautifully.
As for desserts, fresh fruits and berries can help you out, as well as the Pavlova cake - spectacular, incredibly tasty and easy to make. This is a meringue garnished with whipped cream and fresh berries: strawberries, blueberries, raspberries.
If you manage to bring all these wishes to life, your guests will be satisfied, and the impressions of the festive table you organized will warm their souls for a long time.
