PREPARE COLD MEALS – APPETIZERS
1
5
Appetizers are small servings of food and beverages which help in
increasing the appetite slightly. It is usually served before the main meal. They are
also known as hors d’œuvres and vary from country to country. They are snack
items predominantly and cannot be too filling. They are often served along with
cocktails or at a reception party. They may also be served while away the time
until all the guests arrive for a celebratory dinner. An appetizer frequently doubles
up as an entrée dish particularly during a formal meal which includes several
courses.

Variety of Ingredients in Preparing Appetizers
An hors d’oeuvre is used in meals for the same reason as canapés. These two
are often confused for each other. There are, however, three differences between
hors d‘oeuvres and canapés, as follows:
Hors d‘oeuvres are dainty foods, colorful and vary in size and shape. They
may be simple, such as bits of meat and cheese such as crackers with liver pate.
Some are served cold on toothpicks in special holders, while others are served hot
from a chafing dish.
Some simple hors d‘oeuvres are deviled egg, cocktail sausages, sliced smoked
salmon, smoked turkey, stuffed prunes, smoked oysters, miniature meatballs,
Vienna sausages, boiled peeled shrimps, chicharon, and spicy dilis.

Canapés
Canapé Bases
1. Melba toast
2. Crackers of many varieties
3. Pastry
4. Bread such as loaf, French, or rye bread
5. Croutons
Melba toast and crackers are available in the market in assorted sizes,
shapes, and textures.
Croutons are buttered bread shapes baked in the oven until crisp and
brown. Crisp pan de sal halves make perfect croutons. The term also refers to small
cubes of bread fried with herbs and spices or baked for use as garnish for soups
and salads.

The following tasty butter adds flavor to canapés. They are made by blending
¼ cup creamed butter with each of the following combinations:
Topping Garnish
Lobster butter Shrimp, parsley
Smoked salmon, chopped onion,
Cream cheese
chopped parsley
Mustard butter Sliced ham rolled around asparagus
Pimiento butter Smoked oysters, clams
Butter Salami, slices of pickles, cheese
Parsley butter Sardines, mackerel, capers
Canapé Garnishes
Garnishes for canapés are neatly cut portions of pork, beef, fish and seafood,
eggs, cheese, olives, pimiento, and pickles which are used to provide visual appeal.
These pieces should harmonize with the size and shape of the canapé base.
Finger Food
Finger food is food meant to be eaten directly using the hands, in contrast to
food eaten with a knife and fork, chopsticks, or other utensils. In some cultures,
food is almost always eaten with the hands; for example, Ethiopian cuisine is eaten
by rolling various dishes up in injera bread. In the South Asian subcontinent, food
is traditionally always eaten with hands. Foods considered street foods are
frequently, though not exclusively, finger foods.

Right now, there may be an invisible enemy ready to strike. It is called BAC
(bacteria) that can make people sick. Even though consumers cannot see BAC – or
smell or feel it – millions may already be invading food products, kitchen surfaces,
knives, and other utensils. But consumers have the power to fight BAC and to keep
food safe from harmful bacteria. It‘s as easy as following these four simple steps:
Let Us Practice
Activity Utensil
1. Cut buns into bite-size pieces.
2. Drain the marinated chicken.
3. Cake icing, whipped cream, Duchesse potatoes, and soft dough.
4. Pan-frying when a very steady, even heat is needed.
5. Open many different sizes of cans.
1. 100 guests mean making and arranging 600 or more varied appetizers.
2. Hors d‘oeuvres and canapés do keep their appearance well for a long period
of time.
3. Dry canapé bases stored dry, keep well for several days.
4. Hot food should be kept at a temperature above 71º Celsius or served
immediately.
5. Butters and spreads hold well in the cooler or refrigerator when not covered.
