Tea drinking is a beautiful European custom. Typically, a tea table is set up about an hour after dinner, much less often - immediately after it. A tea table is served in the living room. Tea is served in thin cups, adding sugar, milk (cream) or lemon slices to taste. Small cups of tea are distributed with cups. For tea, you can serve small shortbread cookies or rolls. Guests may well help the hostess serve tea.

When distributing products for breakfasts, lunches and dinners, be sure to take into account which products and how much they need this or that member of your family - depending on age and profession. A person who leaves home in the morning without having breakfast quickly gets tired at work and begins to experience a general breakdown long before the lunch break. An overly plentiful lunch at lunchtime at work causes drowsiness and lowers productivity. Therefore, it is very important to think about how to plan meals, how to distribute products throughout the day, what to cook for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Breakfast must first be hearty; it can consist of boiled or fried meat or fish, eggs, cheese, bread, tea, coffee or milk. It is useful to eat porridge (oatmeal, buckwheat, millet) with milk or butter in the morning, as well as fruits. Lunch can consist of three courses: the first - meat, vegetable or fish soup; the second - meat, fish or vegetable dishes stewed or fried; and the third (sweet) - compote, jelly, cake or fruit. To increase your appetite, at the beginning of lunch, it is recommended to serve an appetizer salad, vinaigrette, herring, etc. - from vegetables, cereals or fish; and vice versa, if you have a lighter first course (broth with vegetables or puree soup), then prepare something more satisfying for the second - a dish of meat or fish with a side dish. Dinner should always be light, and food should be taken no later than two to three hours before bedtime. Suitable for dinner are salads, yogurt, scrambled eggs, sandwiches, vegetable casseroles, milk, tea, vegetable and fruit juices. Be sure to include plant foods in your family diet - vegetables, fresh herbs, fruits, berries. The menu should be varied. However, little attention is usually paid to the variety of foods. Not every housewife prepares for the whole day a plan for preparing breakfast, lunch and dinner, that is, what is usually called a menu, and in accordance with this purchases the necessary products. In the everyday life of a housewife, in most cases there are 10-12 dishes, which, alternately, are repeated from year to year. As a result, the family often receives uniform food. Consider also the influence of the season. In autumn and winter, take more space for hot soups - meat and fish; in spring and summer, many people prefer cold soups - cold borscht, okroshka, botvinya, soups made from fresh berries or fruits. The range of fish products is much more varied during the spring and autumn fishing. In spring and summer, a large selection of various dairy products, eggs, poultry, vegetables and herbs are at your service.

If you have a meeting in a restaurant, you don’t need to worry about the intricacies of serving wines or strong alcohol, the waiter will take care of everything. Although, unfortunately, sometimes it is necessary to correct the waiter or even the sommelier on the contrary, because not all restaurants, even expensive ones, can afford to hire really qualified personnel. About cafes and bistros it’s even better not to remember. But if you yourself act as the owner, it is absolutely necessary to remember a number of simple rules for serving wine to the table:

- White wine is served in front of red. - Young wine is served before the old. - Table (natural) wine is served before strong (special) wine. If you pour wine into glasses, keep the following in mind. - A bottle is never taken by the neck - only by the lower part. - Pouring wine into a glass, you can not put the neck to the edge of the glass. - Glasses never fill to the brim, large glasses - only one third (if the capacity of the glass allows it), small glasses are filled half (or slightly less than half). - In order not to stain the tablecloth with red wine, the neck of the bottle is pre-wrapped with a napkin. - White wine, especially if it is champagne, is always served chilled, a bucket of ice water (not with ice!) Is placed not on the table, but on a special stand (a small table is suitable at home) next to the table.

Of great importance for the correct perception of the taste and aroma of the wine served on the table is its temperature. There is no need to adhere to the numbers below, but it is better to follow the following guidelines. - Sparkling wines (including champagne) - 7-9 ° C. - Table white wines (dry, semi-dry, semi-sweet, sweet), as well as strong white wines (including port, madeira, nutmeg) - 12-14 ° С. - Table red wines or strong slightly extractive wines - 14-16 ° С. - Strong red wines of high density (Cahors) - 16-18 ° C. Following these simple recommendations will help you to establish yourself as a gracious host and will be a good occasion for guests to return to your cozy home more than once.
