The debate over
exactly what sides are going to be served for the Holidays isn't always a
passive one. There are so many perfect options, but sometimes one or two of
them have to go. Feelings and hungry stomachs may be disappointed in the
process but here are 3 sides you simply cannot forget when serving up that special meal!
We're going to put our money on the table and call it. Brussel Sprouts! It's no surprise, just about every body has some type of vegetable out for the holidays. We feel like this year Brussel Sprouts has been an unsung hero of the food pyramid.
We definitely
recommend using bowls from our Dimple Porcelain Serveware collection. The Dimple
Collection is a welcomed departure from smooth surfaces, adding some texture
and interest to your tabletop with a new collection of hammered porcelain
aesthetics!
This one is a
wild card of sorts. It could be switched out with a million other sides and you
probably wouldn’t be wrong. However, we still think Mashed Potatoes is your best
bet. You’re guaranteed to have a bird, and stuffing but… where’s that creamy starchy goodness? How you prepare the Potatoes is a whole other top
three list (insert Tolkien reference), but regardless of how you make it, Mashed Potatoes just feels
like a necessary component in any major Holiday meal!
And you’re going
to need a lot! We recommend serving up that piping hot, gooey delight in
our Whittier Square Rim Bowl! Embodying the distinction between placing and
presenting, our Whittier bowls showcase their contents with soft, flowing
shapes that project a progressive elegance, delighting chefs and guests alike.
A necessity for any buffet or table, and perfect for some Holiday Mashed Potatoes!
Lastly, we have
rolls and biscuits. When it comes to special dinner, you can have as little
or as much as you want but you have to have the rolls. Now, rolls and biscuits
can be interchangeable here depending on what you’re working with, but there’s
nothing better that scooping up every thing on your plate in a nice buttery roll, dipping it
in some gravy and taking in all the flavors of the Holidays at once. We all do
it, we all love it, biscuits are our edible shovels that get us through piles
of food and once the turkey and mashed potatoes & gravy are set you gotta
have rolls on deck!
To be honest,
you could probably cart out the biscuits in an old wheel barrel you find
outside and people would still go mad over them. However, you might violate a
couple of health codes doing that! So we recommend our 12” Whittier Serving Bowls.
Embodying the distinction between placing and presenting, our Whittier bowls
showcase their contents with soft, flowing shapes that project a progressive
elegance, delighting chefs and guests alike. A necessity for any buffet or
table. And hey, if your establishment is hosting big parties this is the
perfect bowl to pass around and guarantee the entire table gets a roll!
