'Tis the season for hosting, and it's the perfect opportunity to delight guests with that elevate their taste experience. Many will indulge in holiday favourites such as turkey, roast potatoes, pudding, cheese and biscuits, and a splash of Bailey's. But before tucking into the main event, which often takes a lot of prep time, there are appetising starters to consider.
At most parties you will find dips to enjoy - the go-to accessory for an array of dippable treats, from veggies and chips to crackers and breads. However, rather than serve them in a drab dish, a recipe developer has a creative presentation for your hummus spread. Food content creator Kristel, hailing from Nice, France, has a knack for crafting "simple snacks with a twist" and loves sharing her creations on social platforms.
With an impressive following of 569,000 on Instagram via @kristels.kitchen, she suggests that this year's social gatherings should feature her Christmas hummus wreath. Not only is the treat strikingly gorgeous but it is easy to prepare.
Kristel, who takes joy in creating sharing recipes for hosts, said: "Snack like Santa with this delicious hummus appetizer. "I'm loving this Christmassy twist with tomato ornaments and a cucumber ribbon..
.tasty and festive." A follower, enchanted by Kristel's step-by-step video guide on crafting the appetiser, responded: "This is such a beautiful idea.
" "Wow, fantastic," another added. Another penned: "Wow! This is beautiful hummus. Looks so delicious.
" "I am stealing this idea," chimed in another Christmas enthusiast. To whip up this festive delight, you will need around 500 grams of hummus, a nibble-sized bunch of finely chopped parsley, a dash of cherry tomatoes, a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese, and a cucumber. Here's how to get your Christmas spread looking plummy.
