What is Valentine's Day?

Valentine's Day is every year on February 14th and used to mainly be a day when you anonymously declared your love to someone with a card. A mysterious day for your secret love.

Nowadays, Valentine's Day is a day when you give someone extra attention, which can still be anonymous, but it doesn't have to be. You can do this with a nice (homemade) gift, a card, or something sweet. From the tastiest chocolate strawberries to a romantic dinner.

What do you make for a Valentine's dinner?

You can make a romantic dinner on Valentine's Day as elaborate as you want, prepare their favorite dishes, or go for various dishes in heart shapes or in pink/red colors for an extra sweet touch.

Impress with homemade dishes, place some tea lights and red roses on the table, and enjoy this 'date night' with your loved one.

A glass of champagne or Kir to spark the romance, even better with festive appetizers. Also, choose dishes that you can prepare ahead of time so that you can spend more time together instead of being in the kitchen.

For example, make a simple Caprese salad, which you can make romantic by serving the mozzarella in a heart shape. Then, choose red gnocchi or pasta with a sauce of your choice. End the Valentine's dinner with a soft chocolate mousse, possibly with some red fruit.

What gift do you give for Valentine's?

A homemade gift is the most fun to give and makes more of an impression than a large and expensive gift. For example, make your own chocolate strawberries or heart-shaped cookies, put them in a nice box, and you have the perfect gift!
