How quickly and tasty to defend the honor of the hostess who was taken by surprise.

The Italian antipasto appetizer is traditionally served before the main course. Simply put, this is a piece of bread with a filling, but unlike a sandwich, the bread is dried until crispy. At the same time, the core of the piece remains soft. The easiest option is to fry the baguette, drizzle with olive oil and rub with garlic.
Small sandwiches on skewers are proudly called “canapes”. Thanks to the mini-format, they are convenient to eat, and they look noble and sophisticated. There are no strict restrictions on fillings either. These can be sliced vegetables, seafood, deli meats, or diced cheeses.
Half of the case is solved when you have a tortilla or pita bread at hand, that is, something that you can wrap or “pack” the filling. And then you can fantasize. Meat stews, vegetables, slices of cheese or ham, and even legumes are suitable as filling.
The ingredients of the salad proudly repeat the colors of the Italian flag. And for good reason. It was invented on the island of Capri, located 36 kilometers from Naples. Young mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, basil and olive oil – and nothing else. The presentation gives room for imagination. You can thinly cut the ingredients into slices or place them on skewers. Then you get canapes in Italian flavor.
It is enough to add one more piece of bread on top to the sandwich, and you get an appetizer with the proud name “sandwich”. According to one legend, Lord John Montague, 4th Earl of Sandwich, was so fond of card games that for lunch or dinner he asked the servant to serve cold beef between two slices of crispy bread so as not to get his hands dirty. For the lord, it was just a snack, and a new appetizer appeared in gastronomic history.
