Preparation tasks…
These are all tasks that you will need to complete before you host your meal. It is
important to take your time and understand all the preparation tasks involved for
each course.
On the next page is your tailored ‘Preparation Timeline’, which is where you will find
a full list of preparation tasks for each course and an approximate working time. It’s
also worth noting that the order of prep tasks may not be in course order (for
example, you may need to prepare your dessert before your starter) this is to ensure
you are using your time wisely. All of the tasks include a list of equipment and pantry
ingredients required so that you can choose how, and when to undertake the tasks.
We do, however, have one important recommendation, that is to make sure that all
your preparation tasks are complete at least 30 minutes before your guests arrive.
This will give you time to clear your working space, get your pans and plates ready
and the drinks chilled.
If you have any questions, please contact us on the details provided on your
