Nature comes to your plate

The festive season is approaching, and with it the pleasure of sharing convivial moments around a beautifully laid table. This year, let nature take centre stage on your plates with fresh herbs, for a menu that is as tasty as it is elegant.

Why incorporate herbs into your festive meals?

Aromatic herbs add a touch of freshness, colour and refinement to your dishes. They enhance flavours without masking them, and offer a natural alternative to traditional seasonings.

Our suggestions for herbs and spices to have at home for a successful festive menu

Dill: essential with smoked salmon or marinades.

Chives: ideal for toast, verrines and aperitifs.

Chervil: subtle and delicate, perfect in sauces and side dishes.

Sweet basil: adds a touch of freshness to your starters.

Spearmint: to refresh drinks and desserts.

Beet greens: colourful and crunchy, they decorate your plates with elegance.

Zucchini flower: for a refined edible decoration.

Decorate your festive table with fresh plants

How about inviting nature to your table this year? For an atmosphere that is both elegant and warm, opt for lively and fragrant festive decorations. 

Place a few pots of Véritable® fresh herbs (basil, mint, chives, etc.) in the centre of the table: they will add a touch of authentic greenery and a sweet fragrance that will awaken the senses. 

Slip a few sprigs of dill or chervil into the napkins for a delicate finish, or decorate your plates with colourful beetroot sprouts for a gourmet and festive touch. 

Add a few candles, pine cones and golden elements to create a chic contrast between the plants and the magic of Christmas. A simple, natural and charming decoration that invites you to savour as much as to share.
