Four Holiday Favorites to Cook and Hold
There's no getting around it: in December, most Americans are either throwing holiday parties or attending holiday parties. If catering is your career, then you have more than your share of work ahead of you. In the coming weeks, why not lighten your party-prep workload by choosing some holiday favorites to cook ahead of time and then hold until it's time to serve the guests?
Four Holiday Favorites to Cook and Hold:
This time of year is always quite busy. Why not cut down your time in the kitchen by planning a simple meal? Christmas Eve Confetti Pasta has all the advantages of simplicity (pasta is one of the simplest meals to cook, after all) without sacrificing flavor. Better yet, once the dish is prepared, it holds well.
For those who don't keep kosher, nothing says holidays quite like ham. To take this old favorite to the next level, try this wonderful recipe for Cranberry Glazed Ham. To keep your finished product from drying out, be sure to hold it in a proper holding cabinet that helps the meat retain its natural moisture.
For those with a sweet tooth, Pumpkin Eggnog Rolls are the right choice. Easy to make and easy to keep warm in a holding cabinet, these savory treats are sure to please.
New Orleans Barbecue Shrimp Dip may not sound festive. Unless you live in the South, that is. This flavorful dip should be kept warm for full flavor and enjoyment. If you're willing to take a chance on something new, we know your guests will love you for it.
