The gift box in detail

Five condiments for a spread that's no longer just "olives and peanuts." Fleur de sel de Guérande on crisp buttered radishes, or on almonds you toast yourself in a dry skillet. Sumac dusted over a lemony hummus or cucumber batons with a little olive oil. Halen Môn, the light Welsh flake, on almonds straight from the oven. Pink peppercorns, crushed in a mortar, on a round of fresh goat cheese. Tuscan olive oil, green and bitter, served on its own as a dip with grilled bread and a rubbed clove of garlic. The box ships in a compact format — it slides into a backpack for a dinner at a friend's. An aperitivo card lays out six small plates (buttered radishes, hummus-sumac, almonds-Halen, goat cheese-pink pepper, bruschetta, oil dip) you can run in under fifteen minutes. The catch: don't ruin the radishes by salting them ten minutes early. Fleur de sel on cut vegetables draws out water and goes flat fast — set the salt dish on the table and let people dip as they bite, the way you would at a French counter.

“Five condiments for six small plates in under fifteen minutes, with nothing to cook.”
