This time of year, when guests can drop in out of the blue, you need canapés that come together quickly and have folks asking, “Who catered?”
“The holiday season calls for festive bites that wow without weighing you down,” says Chef Erin Pettipas. In this issue, she delivers inventive canapés that come together quickly.
Earthy roasted beet tartare mounded on crisp rye crackers with whipped goat cheese, refreshing cucumber rounds topped with smoked salmon and sesame-kissed cream cheese — there’s something for every palate. Steak crostini brings bold, savoury indulgence, while herbed turkey meatballs paired with tangy cranberry aioli offer a lighter nod to tradition. And for a flaky, elegant finish, vol-au-vents filled with sage, apple, and sausage are guaranteed to steal the spotlight. Like gifts, some of the best things come in small packages.
