How to choose the best recipes to take to a party:
Ask yourself these questions:
- Do I have an easy way to transport this recipe?
- Will it still be good if I have to make it the day/night before?
- Does this recipe need to be chilled ahead of time?
- Will there be refrigerator space when I get there if the recipe needs to stay cold?
- Will the food be sitting out for a while? If so, will it still be delicious (and safe) at room temperature?
- Will this recipe still look appetizing after several people have served themselves? Mini-tarts, cookies, nuts, or cupcakes might be good choices for a buffet situation.
It would help if you chose something others besides yourself would like to eat. Unless that is, you want to take it all back home and have a party of one.
I like to take something so delicious that I take an empty plate home. When I make deviled eggs, this is guaranteed. Why do you think that is? Do you have a guaranteed winner in your pocket?
