How To Use Meal Kits At A Dinner Party
Hosting a dinner party can be exciting, yet at the same time, daunting. Dinner parties are no doubt a great way to gather friends and/or family and socialise, while enjoying delicious food.
However, not all of us have the luxury of preparing and cooking magnificent meals for our guests. Whether that situation is due to a busy schedule and/or a lack of professional training in the culinary arts, preparing the actual dinner for a dinner party may be the most challenging part.
This is where meal kits come in… and this is how you use them for a dinner party.
Choose Your Meal Kit
The task of preparing and serving a home-cooked meal for a large group can be overwhelming for some. This is why meal kits are a useful way, and a secret trick, to prepare delectable meals for dinner party guests.
Meal kits are pre-prepared meals that come with everything you need (ingredient-wise) to cook a specific meal. In the UK, meal kit delivery revenue is expected to soar 55.87% between 2023 to 2027, indicating its increasing popularity.
There is a variety of meal kits to choose from, meaning you will be able to curate a menu that matches your dinner party’s themes accordingly! For example…
- Summer Garden Party
Are you planning to host a summer garden party for the warm and bright days ahead?
If so, then BBQ box delivery from Indulge is the perfect meal kit for this type of dinner party. In particular, you will find that you have more time to spend on finalising other details of your party such as the guest list or music playlist – no need to spend hours marinating meats and making the sides.
With its contents ranging from apple and soy glazed pork skewers to a mouth-watering rib-eye steak, our BBQ meal kit is one to devour.
- A Fancy Affair
Meanwhile, if you are looking for something a little more elegant and bespoke for a soirée or something similar, we also offer fine dining meal kits consisting of premium produce. Experience fine dining in the comfort of your own home with Indulge’s fine dining meal kits – complete with purees, edible flowers, petit fours, and more.
With menus changing monthly and courses to be eaten and cooked one at a time, a unique dining experience is guaranteed when you order our fine dining meal kits.
- Roast Dinners
It can’t get any better than a roast dinner on Sundays (or any other day, for that matter). Allow yourself to unwind on a peaceful Sunday with our Sunday roast meal kits. With crispy potatoes, glazed carrots, cauliflower cheese, Yorkshire puddings, and of course a Norfolk beef rump (or vegetarian nut roast), relish in an effortless yet sensational Sunday roast dinner for you and your guests.
Did we mention that there is absolutely no washing up involved with this meal kit? Everything is pre-cooked and simply needs to be covered and re-heated!
Enjoy A Quick & Easy Preparation
With a meal kit, you save time and money from having to buy and prepare ingredients as these come with the meal kit itself. A set of cooking instructions will usually accompany the meal kit, so don’t worry if you are unsure about the recipe.
At most, all you will need in order to cook our meal kits are:
- Oven
- Hob/stove
- Saucepans
- Frying pan
- Barbecue/grill
- Meat probe
- Oven tray
At Indulge, our range of premium meal kits can be delivered straight to your door. Freshness is at the core of our ethos, which is why our meal kits are designed to be eaten on the same day as delivery.
Each meal kit should not take longer than 15 minutes to cook, so you are able to socialise and spend more time with your dinner party guests. As a result, this also means that you have more time to plan and prepare for the party itself – including, for example, putting up decorations and/or getting your outfit ready.
Don’t forget to pair your meal kit with a suitable drink – such as wine, beer, cocktails, soft drinks, or something else – to further delight your taste buds and those of your guests.
