Summer is perfect for picnics, parties and enjoying the great outdoors, while autumn is blissful when you’re curled up with delicious food and a gripping new book. To celebrate the second half of the year, Président is encouraging Guardian readers to savour the moment with some suggestions for seasonal activities to try, and simple ways to relax and unwind. Plus, look out for recipes with brie, camembert, emmental and butter – from delicious snacks to easy midweek meals – to add a bit of indulgence to the everyday.
Savouring the moment is a concept very familiar to Président. Its range of cheese and butter does everything from completing afternoon tea to keeping the fridge stocked with staples for snacking, cheeseboards and recipes.
Président uses traditional artisan methods to make its cheese and butter, so its brie is always buttery, going beautifully with fresh, crusty bread and as a wine pairing with crisp sauvignon blanc. The camembert is bold, but creamy enough for everyday cheeseboards, and works well with a medium-dry cider. And Président’s emmental has a sweet, nutty flavour that triumphs with a port or dessert wine.
Président butter is made from high quality creams in Normandy – turning jacket potatoes into an indulgent treat. It’s also versatile: perfect for cooking, baking and spreading on toast.
To help you savour the moment, Président is giving away a very special hamper to one lucky Guardian reader. Ideal for a small party – or a luxurious picnic – the hamper is presented in a wicker basket and contains one pack of Président unsalted butter; 200g of Président Brie; 250g of Président Camembert; 200g of Président Emmental; 135g of Président Camembert Crème; green olives; sun dried tomatoes; and one bottle each of white and red wine to enjoy.
