Canapés
Description
Perfect for the table and with drinks. Bright canapés with red caviar are sure to catch every guest’s eye. Shape them like horseshoes to win over the symbol of the approaching New Year—the Horse! Make this appetizer together with children; they adore such unique dishes. If you like, you can lightly toast the cut-out bread centers in vegetable oil for a crunchier base.

From half a cucumber, use a vegetable peeler to cut long strips, cut them in half, and roll them into small rosettes. Place them on the horseshoe bases. Garnish the canapés with fresh greens and serve on the holiday table. Happy New Year to you!
