One of the wonderful advantages of living in the southern hemisphere is definetely to enjoy a picnic in November. And to think that a year ago in this same period, it was more “quilted jacket stuck to the fireplace”!!
I believe there is nothing better than snacking, taking the time to enjoy the beautiful weather. What I love above all is the homely spirit! Each nibbles what he wants, without constraint. Quiches, pies, salads or spreads are ideal for the occasion, as these sweet and savoury bite.
I chose Smoked Duck Breast, a common french product which might be hard to find abroad. Then, you could replace it with smoked ham. Quick and easy, they are also a delicious aperitif.
