There aren’t many unofficial national holidays that I adhere to, but I’m making an exception for National Picky Bits Day, which falls this Saturday, 27th June.
And it’s come at the perfect time – the heat across the UK has risen to unprecedented levels, so much so that turning on an oven or boiling water to cook dinner would feel like a torture method. So, picky bits it is.
I don’t often need an excuse to indulge in a picky bits dinner with all of my favourite picnic-esque items, but summer is the ultimate reason. Whether you’re prepping a weeknight supper for children or hosting alfresco on the weekend, opting for small dishes is the simplest solution and also means that everyone is guaranteed to find something they like.
The right crockery will upgrade any picky bits dinner, whether it’s simple chopped carrots or fancy M&S charcuterie nibbles – having a few serving dishes and nibble bowls in your kitchen will make any quick dinner feel like a special event.
I’ve pulled together some of my favourite host-ware that I love using for Friday night dinners alone and for events when I want to wow guests. Splatterware is my favourite method for adding colour and pattern to a tablescape, and it remains timeless for summers to come – here are 12 of the best picks to shop now.
