Celebrate Parents with New Cooking Book 📖50 Movie-Themed Cheese 🧀 Platters and Snack Boards🍓 for Film🎥 Fanatics | Mother's Day Gift

Good books can provide endless moments of joy, connection and give an opportunity to reflect, compare and grow making them the perfect gift for any occasion including upcoming Mother's Day. There is a wide selection of books you can pick to make Mom feel truly loved and appreciated. 


This spring we had a chance to check a recently published by Ulysses Press book filled with food recipes and photographs by Rachel Riederman "Once Upon a Rind in Hollywood: 50 Movie-Themed Cheese Platters and Snack Boards for Film Fanatics".  It is a unique full-color cookbook starring 50 different snack board ideas, from timeless cheese boards and charcuterie to candy platters and cocktail pairings, all themed around iconic movies. 


For movie fans there is no better time spent when a twisted plot is paired with delicious film themed food and drinks. Recent years contributed towards movie watching, not only with visuals but also with taste.

Cheese boards, creative charcuterie platters, snack bars became extremely popular in recent years. Not everyone can go to the big theatre cinemas but everyone can have a movie themed party at home with some help from professional recipe developers like Rachel Riederman.

Whether you’re streaming a classic, a thriller series, family cartoons or musicals, watching alone or with family and friends, snacks are a must-have. With gorgeous flat-lay photography for every movie-themed board and detailed recipes, Once Upon a Rind in Hollywood outlines helps to create cheesy cinematic pairings.


You know we love watching movies, and it is amazingly entertaining how "Once Upon a Rind in Hollywood: 50 Movie-Themed Cheese Platters and Snack Boards for Film Fanatics" adds more creative ideas to our movie parties. I like that the book includes recipes for different genres of movies like action, drama, kids' film, comedy, horror and others. The best part is that these recipes do not take much time to prepare and just give you an idea on how to create a fancy cheese or snack boards. You can add your own ideas to these food boards, the opportunities are endless. We were also amused by the recipe names, they are inspired by food and movies, some of them totally funny like these ones:
 
  • May the Fromage Be with You (Star Wars) 
  • Draw Me Like One of Your French Gruyères (Titanic) 
  • I’ll Harvarti What She’s Having (When Harry Met Sally) 
  • Here’s Looking at You, Curd (Casablanca) 
  • Brie-king Dawn (Twilight)  and many more!
First board we made was for Dirty Dancing movie themed party using the recipe called "Nobody Puts BabyBel In The Corner" from the book. 

Get your boards and creativity ready, as this year's book is written to give you a fabulous time while watching movies, alone or with company. We are looking forward to sharing more recipes from this book and having fun at the same time.
