Jackson Boxer, chef/patron of Brunswick House and latest venture Henri, both in London, takes a minimalist approach to snacks, which really comes into its own in summer. “There are so many simple, delicious things that you don’t have to do anything to,” he says. “Good potato chips fried in olive oil [his go-to are Bonilla A La Vista] are unimpeachable; good anchovies are unimpeachable; good olives are unimpeachable; shavings of good cheese – unimpeachable.”
Melissa Hemsley, author of Real Healthy, couldn’t agree more, although she goes one step farther by threading anchovies, olives and cubes of manchego on to cocktail sticks: “Yum – and so easy.”
