RISE & SHINE! IT’S TIME TO CELEBRATE SPRING IN THE KITCHEN
There’s nothing more pleasant than waking up to the sun shining, birds singing and cool breezes blowing gently though the windows on a bright spring morning. Add the aromas of coffee and a delicious breakfast coming from the kitchen and you’ve got the beginnings of a perfect day.
Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day and one I particularly enjoy spending time preparing, serving and, of course, eating when I have time on weekends or holidays. Planning the meal ahead of time means the preparation and dining experience will be stress-free and delicious whether cooking for one or the whole family.
With the help of Thermador appliances including the speed oven, warming drawer and coffee maker, it’s quick and easy to serve up everyone’s favourite breakfast on a leisurely spring morning. Whether an early riser or someone who requires a bit more beauty sleep, anyone can expect a warm and delicious meal with a steaming cup of coffee no matter what time they eventually make it to the kitchen.
But it’s not all about appliances and cooking. With the arrival of spring, why not celebrate the season with a few spring touches to add to both your kitchen and dining experiences. From breakfast -or breakfast in bed on Mother’s Day - to dinner, here are a few spring-inspired ideas to help elevate your everyday breakfast cuisine and celebrate the season.
