# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It looks like you spent hours when you actually spent ten minutes—pure kitchen magic.
  • Everyone eats exactly what they want, no compromises or cooking allergies drama.
  • It's the kind of thing that feels indulgent without making you feel guilty afterward.
02 -
  • Take the cheese out of the fridge fifteen minutes before serving so it softens just enough to actually taste like something and not like cold disappointment.
  • Apple slices will oxidize and turn brown within minutes—a squeeze of lemon juice buys you at least an hour of pretty.
03 -
  • Toast your nuts in a dry pan for five minutes before the board goes out—it's a thirty-second move that makes everything taste like you knew what you were doing.
  • Use a wooden board if you have one; it actually keeps cheese at a better temperature than ceramic and somehow makes everything taste better.
