Hi carb Foods
Perusing the "Carb Shops" we see a plethora of festive hampers filled with carb laden "treats".
As an antidote, we need to design a luxurious low carb treat fest for us!

I'll start:
A side of oak smoked Scottish wild salmon.
Side of Scottish wild Salmon
some hot smoked brown trout
A leg of machair fed lamb
A selection of wild strawberries, blaeberries, & raspberries with double cream.
Some Gigha Cheese
A selection of walnuts & hazelnuts
A bottle of Laphroaig triple Wood whisky.
 
just fill it with cheese, pate, ham, chorizo etc and I'm happy! Oh and don't forget the pickled onions and gerkins, must have those with the cheese.
 
Neat idea - Fergus

Ideal Hamper for me would have some

Cheese's small selection of these
Selection of thinly sliced ham
Pack of quality bacon lardons
Bottle of Advocaat / Lime juice (love making snow balls)
Sparkling spring waters
Bottle of lemon slices
Bottle of pickles
Small bag of almonds/brazil nuts
Basket of fruits and veggies
Tub of double cream
 
Brilliant ideas. Straight on my birthday present request list!
