holidays & recipes: beggars purse
These adorable little sacks remind us of exactly what they are called, beggar’s purse. These are a beautiful addition to the Elegant Christmas Dinner menu. While the Cornish game hens, stuffing and Brussels sprouts were quite easy to make, these beggar’s purses will require a little more attention. That being said, they are quite inexpensive as the ingredients are not extensive and they are seasonally available. We recommend taking your time when making these, following the directions carefully and you will find your guests oohing and ahhing at the results. The beggar’s purses present wonderfully, letting your guest know you have taken a little extra care to make their Christmas special.
