Savoury Snack Hamper

Seven savoury things to put on a table, from crackers to olives.

Sweet snacks are easy to buy. A proper savoury selection is harder: something to crunch, something salty, something with a little heat, and something to spoon out of a jar. This box has all four, so you can set out a snack table without making a single thing. Crunch worth sharing.

What’s in the box

• Raw Pistachio Kernels, Whole Food Earth — 250g. Shelled, raw and unsalted, so there is nothing to pick apart. Vivid green and subtly sweet, with 26.2g protein per 100g.
• Whole Cashew Nuts, Whole Food Earth — 250g. One ingredient, unroasted and unsalted. Eat them as they are, or roast and season them yourself.
• Pecan Halves, Whole Food Earth — 250g. Raw and unsalted, with a naturally sweet, buttery flavour. The one for the cheeseboard.
• Chilli Honey Caramelised Peanuts, Stock & Bite — 1kg. Roasted peanuts in a chilli and honey caramel, seasoned with onion, garlic and cayenne. Sweet first, then a lingering warmth.
• Nippon Mix Asian Style Crackers, Stock & Bite — 750g. Crisp rice crackers with soy sauce, roasted peanuts and sesame seeds.
• Original Sourdough Crackers, Peters Yard — 90g. Thin, crisp crackers made with rye, wheat and 12% sourdough.
• Pitted Colossal Halkidiki Olives in Brine, Cypressa — 315g. Extra-large green olives from northern Greece, stones removed, with no artificial additives or flavourings.

Total: about 2.9kg across seven packs.

Why it works

It covers the whole table. Two kinds of cracker, olives, three kinds of nut and something spicy.

Nothing needs preparing. Open, tip into bowls, done.

Most of it keeps. The nuts and crackers are store-cupboard items, and the olives stay sealed in their jar until you want them.

It suits a crowd. Film nights, card games, drinks before dinner, or a long afternoon of picking.

Storage

Keep everything in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and damp. The Stock & Bite bags are not resealable, so transfer the peanuts and crackers to airtight containers once opened. Once the olives are open, follow the storage instructions on the jar.
