Hosting a Charcuterie Board Night with the Verona Chefs Pak

February 15, 2022 by EuroChef

You might have seen videos of charcuterie board nights while scrolling through Instagram or TikTok. These beautiful and fun boards are easy to assemble, allow guests to graze as freely as they like, and feature endless combinations of meats, cheeses, breads and more. Gather your closest group of friends for your own charcuterie board night with the help of Verona’s new Chefs Pak.

The Basics

These decorative platters of food may look complicated based on their grandeur size and ingredients, but the basics are straightforward. You’ll want to start by breaking the board into categories: one section for soft, easy-to-grab foods that are pre-sliced and one area for harder foods that need cutting. Then, you can decorate the rest of the board with spreadables, dips, toppers and palate cleansers. Label tags can inform guests of ingredients if there are any food allergies.

The Classic Charcuterie Board

A classic charcuterie board is a must for this event. The base of your board should be a serving tray or cutting board, like the maple cutting board from our Chefs Pak. Start with soft, pre-sliced meats in one corner of the board, like prosciutto or roast beef. Add harder meats like a log of salami or chorizo in another corner. Hard cheeses that will also need slicing, like Manchego or Asiago, should be placed next to the hard meats. Add spreadables like goat cheese or hummus. Finally, round out the board with pickles, sauces, honey, jam, crackers or bread.

The Fondue Board

Cheese is the shining star with this charcuterie board. A great fondue starts with shredded swiss and gruyere cheese, white cooking wine and your preferred selection of spices. As the ingredients are melted down, keep an eye on the temperature with a digital probe. Fondue cheese should be kept at 120 degrees to maintain the perfect melting temperature. Add a display of apple slices, French bread, pretzels, meatballs, roasted potatoes and broccoli around your fondue pot. This fondue board features a beer cheese recipe – perfect for game day.

The Rainbow Board

Taste the rainbow with a rainbow charcuterie board. You’ll want to gather a variety of fruits and vegetables in every color of the rainbow. Think apple slices, peppers, oranges, sweet potatoes, carrots, broccoli, asparagus, blueberries, plums, grapes and purple potatoes. You can steam a selection of vegetables with the Verona steamer pan to add varying flavors and textures. Finish the board with dippers like honey, ranch dressing and garlic butter or maple butter sauces.

The Dessert Board

Time for dessert! This board may be the easiest of them all. There’s no shame in getting boxed brownie mix and slice-and-bake cookie dough. Bake brownies and cookies in the oven according to package directions and use Verona’s oven mitts to safely take bakeware out of the oven. Add biscotti to the display to have alongside coffee or tea, or to dip into chocolate or hazelnut spread. Strawberries, raspberries and bananas can also be added for color – and for a dose of healthy vitamins.

The Breakfast Board

Can’t find an evening when everyone is available? Host a brunch after a Saturday morning hockey or baseball game. You’ll want to have breakfast basics, like pancakes, waffles and French toast, but make them bite-sized by having silver dollar pancakes, mini waffles and French toast sticks. Add spreadables like butter, cream cheese and jam. You’ll also want to add meats, like sausage and bacon, which can be cooked with Verona’s cast iron griddle and spatula made for perfectly flipped pancakes and crispy bacon. Finish off the board with syrup and honey for dipping, and fruit and nuts for color.

Verona Appliances Introduces New and Improved Chefs Pak

February 10, 2022 by EuroChef

Lightweight and Induction-Friendly Cast Iron Grill/Griddle to Replace Stainless Griddle

Verona Appliances has released their new and improved Chefs Pak to the U.S. market.

The Verona Chefs Pak can be used in tandem with any size range to make home cooking a breeze. Initially debuted in 2015, the Chefs Pak has grown from eight unique cooking accessories to nine. New this year is a second oven mitt and a cast iron grill pan that is more lightweight and can be used on induction cooktops.

“The Chefs Pak makes a great addition to any home cook’s kitchen,” states Melissa Haber, Vice President of EuroChef USA. “The new accessory package is more adaptable than ever. Whether consumers are cooking with electric, gas or induction, we provide options for every level of cooking to make mealtime easier.”

The exclusive accessory package includes:

  • Cast iron grill/griddle
  • Maple cutting board, measuring 10 ¼” W x 17 ¼” D x 1¼” H
  • Steamer pan with base, steamer and cover, which can also be used as a warming station or within the oven cavity
  • 2 durable and heat resistant Verona oven mitts
  • Digital temperature probe (batteries included)
  • 3”x 5” beveled spatula

The improved Chefs Pak (VECP2) has a new retail value of $499, or at a discounted price of $299 when purchased with any Verona range after instant rebate.

The Verona Chefs Pak: An Ultimate Home Cook’s Dream

April 20, 2021 by EuroChef

A chef-worthy range calls for chef-worthy accessories. The Verona Chefs Pak can be used in tandem with any size range, and its many unique accessories make home cooking a breeze. The Chefs Pak includes a 3” x 5” beveled spatula; a heavy-duty stainless-steel griddle; maple cutting board; a digital meat probe; steamer pan with base, steamer and cover; and an oven mitt.

Beveled Spatula

Fry, flip, and flatten burgers with ease using our 3” x 5” beveled spatula. The tool is also great for delicate items as well like omelets or flakey fish.

Heavy-duty Stainless-steel Griddle

No need to purchase an electric griddle here — our heavy-duty stainless-steel griddle fits nicely over the range’s surface! The griddle is perfect for cooking Sunday morning pancakes and eggs, quickly preparing quesadillas and grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch, or making crab cakes for a pasta dinner.

Cleaning Tip: The best way to clean the griddle is to add some kosher salt and a little bit of oil to the surface while it’s still warm. Take half a lemon and using a fork, rub the salt and oil mixture around the griddle. The salt acts as an abrasive, while the acidity from the lemon juice can expunge impurities. Wipe clean with a paper towel, leaving the surface slightly oiled for your next use.

Maple Cutting Board

The maple cutting board is convenient for stovetop food preparation. Grooves are expertly carved into the wood, so any juices, oils, sauces or loose pieces of food can swiftly be moved out of the way. Measuring 10 ¼” W x 17 ¼” D x 1¼” H, the maple cutting board nestles directly into the seasoned griddle when it’s not in use, so the seasoning on the griddle is preserved for your next meal.

Digital Meat Probe

Whether you’re roasting beef, chicken, pork, fish, lamb, or turkey, our digital meat probe makes it clear and convenient to get a read on when your protein is done cooking. Batteries are included.

Tip: Follow the guidelines below for minimum cooking temperatures to ensure proteins have reached a safe internal temperature.

  • Ground beef, pork, veal or lamb: 160º
  • Fresh beef, pork, ham veal or lamb: 145º
  • Precooked ham: 165º
  • Poultry: 165º
  • Egg dishes: 160º
  • Fish with fins: 145º or until flesh is opaque and separates easily with a fork

Steamer Pan with Base, Steamer and Cover

The steamer accessory set is the ultimate home cook’s dream to achieve a restaurant-style meal at home. The steamer pan can either sit on top of the griddle or can be used inside the oven cavity to steam fresh or frozen vegetables, shellfish or reheat leftovers when you’re in a pinch. Remove the steam basin and you have a food warming station ready to go for your next dinner party.

Oven Mitt

Protect your hands while handling hot pots, pans, dishes, and more with our durable and heat resistant oven mitt, branded with our Verona logo.

If you or someone you know is an avid home cook, the Verona Chefs Pak is a great addition to any kitchen and can make an excellent gift. Visit your local appliance specialty store or shop online with an authorized retailer.

The Chefs Pak can be purchased for $599, or at a discounted price of $299 when you purchase any Verona range. You can also enter our giveaway to win your very own Chefs Pak here.

5 Ways to Design your Kitchen for Wellness

August 21, 2019 by EuroChef

Your health and wellness shouldn’t be limited to just changing your diet or exercise regimen. Creating a healthy lifestyle can start by rejuvenating the spaces you spend most of your time in, like the kitchen.

Let Verona Appliances help you liven up your kitchen with these 5 wellness tips.

Bring the Outdoors In

Did you know plants are natural mood boosters or that they inspire creativity and purify the air? A great way to incorporate plants in your kitchen is by building an herb or vegetable garden.

Whether you have room for 1 or 5 pots, having year-round access to fresh plants you grow yourself will make cooking even more exciting, tasty, and healthy.

Use Proper Ventilation

Boiling water, grease, and other liquids can easily accumulate on your kitchen surfaces. Range hoods are a great way to reduce excess moisture and grease particles that linger in the air while you cook and prevent mold growth and residue build-up.

Range hoods can also limit the natural carbon monoxide runoff created by burners. Verona Appliances offers two 36” hood options each with powerful multi-speed fans, LED lights and additional features.

Say Goodbye to Plastic

As we grow more aware of where our food comes from it’s just as important to be mindful of how we store it.

By switching from plastic to glass containers you can reduce your carbon footprint, stop airborne germ and smell absorption into your food, and prevent chemicals from leaching into your meals if using a microwave for reheating.

Limit Microwave Use

Its no secret, microwaves are not the safest option for cooking and heating food. Steamers are excellent alternatives.The Chefs Pak by Verona Appliances features a stovetop steamer that sits on top of the included griddle and perfectly cooks vegetables and fish as well as easily reheats leftovers.

Try Chemical-Free Cleaning

If you clean your countertops and appliances with harsh chemicals there’s a good chance they will end up contaminating your food. Try incorporating surfaces and appliances that can be cleaned organically.

All Verona Appliance range cavities are built with an easy-clean enamel, which allows for simple and chemical-free cleaning. The interior of all ranges can be cleaned with a water, lemon, and vinegar solution, while the glass in the oven doors can easily be removed and wiped down with soap and water in the sink.
