One shopping list
Select your guest count to scale the whole dinner.
Quantities scale; cooking times do not. Adjust pans and batches, and round whole items sensibly. Check every ingredient label for allergens. Cool cooked food promptly, refrigerate within two hours and use within 48 hours; reheat only once until steaming throughout. Food storage guidance.
A calmer evening
- Day before: make chocolate pots.
- Earlier: wash leaves and slice melon; chill. Measure pasta sauce ingredients.
- Before guests arrive: make sauce, timing it close to service.
- At service: assemble starter. Cook and toss pasta, then dress salad. Serve chocolate pots chilled.
Check your oven capacity and read each recipe before hosting.
In the glass
A dry Italian white or light red; or sparkling water with grapefruit.
