Many are now planning spring and even summer events, and some party foods continue to be hot this year for warm-weather events. Here are some of the top with-it foods for spring parties and events:
Artichokes in lush preparations such as braised with pancetta or cipolline, in flans with shallots and cream, or in frittatas (trendy served as individual frittatas, trios of frittatas, or as small wedges on tasting dishes).
Crab in crabtinis, yuzu-crab combos, shrimp and crab combos, and retro-fusion hot crab dips
Sliders with gourmet cheeses like Comté, avocado or caramelized sweet onion, and interesting spreads such as red allioli mayo, curry mayo, or horseradish sour cream mayo.
Oven-roasted or caramelized farmer's market vegetables with retro-trendy green goddess dip or cabrales dip
Fresh fruit in parfaits, dessert shots, blended with cream for dessert, mousses, poached with wine or liqueur, or in free-form crostatas sprinkled with sugar
Make-your-own pizza parties with toppings of jamón serrano, potato, or other gourmet treats
Comfort foods like mac n'cheese with luxe stir ins like lobster; American Bistro foods such as these have resurged, often in tweaked form (meatloaf with an interesting add in and sauce, puff pastry chicken sausage pigs in blankets, fries with unusual mayos or ketchups, mini puff pastry pot pies)
Warmly,
