Grazing Table
Natalie Thomson’s The Grazing Table is an inviting guide to creating sweet and savory grazing boards at home. From classic charcuterie and cheeseboards to mezze, fruit platters, and dessert spreads, it offers ideas for sharing food with family and friends, whether you’re planning a midweek meal or a larger celebration.
Build a spread for every occasion
Explore butter boards, antipasti, seafood platters, and other arrangements that make a shared meal feel special. Use the book for inspiration when setting out a relaxed weekend brunch, planning a picnic, or putting together a spread for guests to enjoy at their own pace.
More than 60 recipes to make your own
Alongside board-building ideas, the book includes more than 60 simple recipes for preparing some of the elements from scratch. Five chapters cover dairy, fruit and vegetables; fish and seafood; poultry; meat; and treats, giving you a range of starting points for different tastes and occasions.
From savory favorites to sweet finishes
Ideas include a whipped salted butter board, a cheesy tear-and-share bread wreath, a rainbow fruit platter, build-your-own poke bowls, fish tacos, chipotle chicken nachos, and a burger board. For a sweeter gathering, explore a pancake platter, mini doughnuts, or an ice cream station.
A thoughtful gift for a host
Pair this book with a serving board or a favorite kitchen accessory for a personally chosen housewarming or hostess gift. It is also a useful addition to your own cookbook collection when you want fresh ways to bring people together around food.
