On Sunday June 4, moms are in the spotlight! There is no better occasion than Mother’s Day to bring the whole family together around a good meal. We have therefore concocted a delicious menu that will satisfy her.
Bluffing our mothers is child’s play
We all agree on one thing: no kitchen can match our mother’s. Mother’s Day is therefore the time to challenge yourself and create a meal worthy of your cuisine. First thing not to neglect to greet mothers, but also spring: use fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables. To do this, go to the market. Plan a complete meal ranging from a bourbon and red fruit cocktail to open the festivities to a rose, coconut and cardamom panna cotta for dessert. She’s definitely going to love it! For the starter, we opt for mimosa eggs with borage. How about following it up with a generous leg of lamb with spices and olives? A refined family dish that will delight the whole family that we (almost) don’t need to take care of. For dessert, be creative and make your mom a special cake for the occasion. If you’re not used to cooking, this might be the time to push yourself and show your moms that you’re making an effort.
A moment of sharing
Mother’s Day is the perfect opportunity to get together with family. Focus on beautiful decoration and beautiful tableware that will please your mother. You can also use edible flowers to enhance your meal. The flowers go well with all preparations, whether sweet or savory. Sweet flowers, such as mimosa, elderberry and acacia, or with pronounced floral notes, such as rose and lavender, are the easiest to pair with baking. After having given everything to the decoration, it is important to create a friendly and sharing atmosphere with a family dish that will please everyone. An aperitif to snack on together will also do the trick. As for the gift, give him a beautiful chef’s dessert that you will enjoy together on the big day.
