An appetizer is a small portion of food served before the main course to stimulate the appetite. It allows a diner to anticipate the next dish. In restaurants, appetizers are served to help make guests, especially children, feel comfortable while waiting for the main course. Clearly, appetizers are important meal starters. Back in the 1960’s, the most popular appetizers were the Franks in Blankets and caviar. Nowadays, there’s a wider range of choices that includes sushi, nacho chips and dips, and pita or tortilla wraps. The most common party appetizers, aside from the chips and dips, are crackers and cheese, fried mushrooms, and melted Mozzarella cheese sticks which children love. Appetizers are normally prepared using bacon, cheese, tuna, or chicken. Mexican appetizers use a lot of homemade salsas. However, the best appetizers are the ones that are able to whet the appetite in a way that makes one look forward to the next dish. The best appetizers are tasty, crispy, easy-to-swallow, and light on the stomach. The zesty and spicy Buffalo Chicken Wings is one of the best appetizers served not only in restaurants but in most homes as well. A combination platter of 3 or more varieties is the best appetizer choice for large groups or parties. To add a strikingly different appeal to your appetizer, try complementing it with a dash of lemon juice or some delicious fruits or even a crispy chocolate cookie on the side. An ordinary lunch or dinner can become a truly interesting feast of delectable dishes if you begin by teasing your guests with luscious appetizers.
