Vegetables and herbs processed directly from the bed can not be topped in terms of freshness. They then still contain all the precious and delicious ingredients. Zucchini and eggplant, roasted peppers and spring onions are not only excellent for growing in the garden at home or in raised beds, or even for growing in tubs, they are also ideal for grilling as a vegetarian alternative or as a side dish for steak and sausages. Freshly plucked rosemary and thyme provide the right seasoning and that Mediterranean vacation feeling. Not only do the grilled dishes smell good, but your fingers do too - double the pleasure in the shortest possible time. Another advantage: For spontaneous barbecues or guests who prefer vegetables, you always have something on hand with home-grown vegetables.

Finally, we can glow with joy towards the summer. We have some great ideas for the perfect barbecue - from the gas-powered plancha grill to the multifunctional garden grill and fireplace to the Big Green Egg, which is not only great for grilling, but also for smocking, braising, baking and much more.

All it takes is a few good things to turn a plain beer garden set into an inviting summer table that your guests will be only too happy to sit down at. Because if the table is stylishly set and the food is presented attractively and in the right light, the appetite does not come only when eating.
