King Charles has made his choice for the special meal that will be served at the upcoming Coronation Big Lunch. The Royal Family’s official Twitter account announced on April 17th, 2023 that the King and Queen Consort have shared the recipe for the “Coronation Quiche” in honor of the occasion.
The Big Lunch, also known as the Coronation Lunch, is an event organized to bring the community together in celebration of the historic royal event. According to the official website of the Royals, the lunch is meant to be a time of “friendship, food, and fun.”
The Coronation Quiche is a delectable savory tart that can be eaten either warm or cold. King Charles has put his own spin on the classic French dish by adding spinach, broad beans, and tarragon baked in a light, crispy pastry shell. The dish pairs perfectly with a green salad and boiled potatoes.
This is not the first time that the Big Lunch has been organized. Since its creation in 2013, several events have been held worldwide. The most recent one was in June 2022, hosted by Queen Consort Camilla in honor of the late Queen Elizabeth II’s platinum jubilee.
Each Big Lunch features a signature dish that is chosen for the occasion. For his coronation, King Charles seems to have chosen the Coronation Quiche. The dish is expected to bring people together in celebration of this historic royal event.
In conclusion, the upcoming Coronation Big Lunch is set to be a time of joy and celebration, and King Charles’ choice of the Coronation Quiche as the signature dish is sure to be a hit among attendees. The meal will be an opportunity for the community to come together and commemorate this momentous occasion in the history of the monarchy.
