Apéro - The delightful custom from Switzerland

Everything that goes with an aperitif

A sumptuous cheese and sausage platter is a must for this indulgent time-out. The meat specialties on the platter include air-dried Bündnerfleisch, fine Valais dried meat, Appenzeller Mostbröckli, Salsiz and Bündner raw ham. A small selection of cheeses also belongs on the Swiss aperitif platter. A spicy Sbrinz or Brie is ideal here. You can round off the Swiss taste experience with crunchy nuts, tomatoes, olives, gherkins and radishes - however you like. The Swiss also serve various types of home-baked bread as a hearty accompaniment to their aperitif. Of course, a good bottle of wine - red or white - is a must for a genuine Swiss aperitif. Because the wine enhances the fine taste of the fine specialties. Everything you need for full enjoyment!

You can cut the delicacies into slices and arrange them lovingly; after all, you eat with your eyes. It's really quick and you'll be done with the preparations in no time. This leaves you enough time to look after your friends and enjoy the evening with them. Want to prepare more than just a cold cheese and sausage platter?
