CHRISTMAS STOVETOP SIMMER
Paige Hull
Few things are more nostalgic than the smells of Christmas—they truly capture the magic of the season. For us, there are two key ways to bring those festive scents into our home. First, we always make sure to buy a real tree each year (and recycle it afterward). The second is this simple Stovetop Simmer, which works wonders in filling the home with those holiday aromas. Not only does it smell incredible, but it also looks stunning, especially when placed in a beautiful pot like the one we used from our online shop. Add in some nostalgic tea towels, (you can grab the ones below here) for the perfect finishing touch to your Christmas decor.
The recipe below is super easy to make with ingredients you most likely already have in your kitchen. We’re pretty causal about the amounts we use but listed some just to get you started. We feel the amounts should be determined by your personal preference and what you have on hand.
HOW TO MAKE STOVETOP SIMMER:
Fill your pan with water 1/2 - 3/4th of a way and heat.
Add your ingredients and stir.
Simmer on the back burner and enjoy!
I got to whip up this beautiful scene and recipe with my good friend, Becki Griffin of Curious Details. She can make anything look amazing (especially the charcuterie ingredients pan) and together (I think) we did just that.
We can’t wait to see how you make your own Stovetop Simmer! Be sure to tag us on Instagram sharing your #rvtstovetopsimmer @thevintageroundtop.
