Recipes Planning a Romantic Valentine's
Day Meal
Even stale bread seems tasty enough when you are
have your beloved to share it. But you have got to admit that even
the best of traditional and modern lavish holiday dinners do not
seem at all romantic when compared to chocolate dipped strawberries
and oysters. Here are some tips that will help you plan an
irresistibly romantic fare for your Valentine:
1. Include
Aphrodisiac foods in your meals to add instant sex appeal. Use
chocolate and berries in your dessert and garlic in all dishes that
require sautéing. Avocados and Artichoke hearts can be used to make
sides and dips. Here is a List of
Aphrodisiac foods which will come handy.
2. Try to make dishes with a smooth, creamy and
silken texture. For example a White Chocolate Mousse or a
Strawberry Soufflé Omelet.
3. Keep the dishes light to avoid feeling lethargic
after the meal.
4. Avoid any oily finger foods as you will find your
oily hands a hindrance when holding hands between the meal.
5. Go for dishes that have a soft and mellow taste
as opposed to strong and pungent flavors.
6. A word of caution when using chocolate. Chocolate
has to be included in the dessert (except if you or your partner
really do not like it) but too much of chocolate or too bitter a
chocolate can cause difficulties. Choose a softer variety and keep
the portions small. Let your own judgment and individual tastes
guide you when using chocolate.
7. Add some easy to eat finger foods which you can
feed each other.
8. This is one dinner that doesn't need to be too
lavish. What is really needed here is your own enjoyment of it. So,
instead of planning an elaborate menu, choose a total of 4 or 5
dishes and ensure that you don't get overworked.
