Fish and Meat Board
The Ultimate Fish and Meat Board is a great way to jazz up your next happy hour! Fresh fish & meats make for a savory and simple spread!
We're about to turn your world upside down.
Specifically, your happy hour world.
Over the past couple of years when we've had our gaggle of best girls over for giggles and giggle juice at five o’clock, the same thing always happens. Champagne is poured followed by more wine and the typical charcuterie board makes it’s grand entrance. For the record, there is nothing wrong with what we just said. We will never pass up a glass of champagne with a side of cheese and chorizo.
But! After our recent travels to Scotland, we experienced a game changer in the happy hour appetizer routine. Since Scotland has simple access to salmon (duh!) and other seafood delights, instead of snacking on cheese and meat, they had meat and fish boards! CAN YOU SAY GENIUS??? We don’t know why we didn’t think about this idea sooner. We adore cheese, but the idea of nibbling on slices of fresh salmon, pickled herring, trout, and haddock was life changing in the simplest form.
So, what’s a girl to-do when she is presented with a new way of enjoying her favorite part of the day? Make it at home, of course! Below is our full-proof way to enjoy The Ultimate Fish and Meat Board. You can find most of the ingredients at your local grocery store, but if you have access to a local fish monger definitely worth the trek. You can always find new fish to pickle or sashmi to try if you want a more raw piece of fish. We picked some smoked salmon belly and thought we struck fish gold.
Anyway, like most appetizer boards this one comes together lickety-split. Pile everything onto a serving tray and let the ooooooohhhhhig and aaaaaaahing begin. So what are you waiting for? Invite your gaggle over, get the champagne and wine flowing, and put out the fish and meat board.
Your happy hour world will never be the same. you’ll thank us later.
