Start Wizard
A winter table is built around a sense of warmth: dark, earthy table linens, textured napkins, and candlelight create a welcoming intimacy. Heavy serving dishes and casseroles are winter favorites; keeping them on trivets at the center of the table, ready to share, brings everyone together.
Hot dishes need to be kept warm at a winter table: bring the casserole and soup out just before serving, and keep the pot warm on a trivet at the table to preserve its flavor. Have warm bread, salep, or a pot of tea ready to complete the winter table.
