Every year that Ramadan<\/strong> comes around, I find myself looking for new ways to experience the Iftar (breaking of the fast meal). I want to enjoy what’s seasonal, make things look beautiful and taste fresh and delicious. That’s what I love and I know my guests will enjoy and appreciate the vibrant colors and seriously good food as a result- making everyone at the table happy!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Flowers<\/p>\n

This year, I scoured my garden for inspiration. I planted a French style potager garden<\/a> where I incorporate veggies and herbs growing with colorful flowers like roses, zinnia, lavender, marigolds, Indian strawberries and so much more. I need to take pictures of that and share here…<\/p>\n

\"Rosemary<\/p>\n

One of the ideas I had this year was to offer a cheese plate with crackers, crudit\u00e9s and decorate with garden goodness when I had guests for Iftar<\/strong>. It turned out so beautiful that I’ve even been doing this just for myself, too! What a great way to make the Iftar special, even if you’re doing it alone.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_7155<\/a><\/p>\n

The full platter I’ve been making contains a variety of cheeses. To make sure they’re halal<\/strong>, simply look for a halal label or look for microbial enzymes<\/strong> and microbial rennet<\/strong> or a vegetarian cheese<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

\"DSC_7166<\/a><\/p>\n

To prepare a platter similar to what I’ve done here, pick some fresh garden herbs and edible flowers as decor. Dice each of the cheese varieties; plate the chips or crackers, add crudit\u00e9s<\/a> (raw veggies) and serve. If serving at a later time, simply cover the entire platter in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve. <\/p>\n
