Step 1
1. First, start with the bread. In this case, black bread is used; however, you can also use a French baguette or regular white bread. First, remove the crusts from the bread, then cut it into small squares. If time allows, you can put the bread in a preheated oven for 3–5 minutes, and the homemade buffet canapés will turn out crispy.

2. You can use not only hard cheese but also soft cheese—for example, mozzarella. The denser the cheese, the easier it is to shape as needed. Cut it into pieces the same size as the bread. How can you make buffet canapés even more original? Use cookie cutters to cut out the bread and cheese.

3. Wash and dry the fresh herbs (in this version only dill is used, but it can be any herbs you have on hand at home). Finely chop the dill and place it in the blender bowl. Add mayonnaise and blend briefly. You can do without the appliance, but then the sauce will not be quite smooth.
