✅What do you understand by Savory Appetizers?

Savory appetizers are all light foods that are served before the main course. They are usually slightly salty, spicy, or spicy in taste, which helps to increase the taste of the mouth. The main purpose of serving these light foods before the main course is to prepare the guests for the main course and to further awaken their appetite.

Savory appetizers can be of various types. For example:

🔺Dips and spreads: For example - hummus, guacamole or cheese dip, which is usually eaten with bread, crackers or vegetables.

🔺Small meat or fish items: For example - chicken wings, meatballs, or small fish cutlets.

🔺Vegetable items: For example - vegetable spring rolls, stuffed mushrooms or piaju.

🔺Different types of rolls or parcels: For example - samosa, chicken roll or cheese roll.

🔺Dim Sum: Chinese food, which consists of small pastries made of meat, vegetables or seafood.

🔺Satay: Pieces of meat or fish prepared on a stick.

These dishes are usually light, so that the stomach does not fill up before the main course. That is why savory appetizers are served first in any event or restaurant to increase our appetite.

✅What should be the right portion of serving of appetizers?

The right serving size for appetizers depends on whether the food will be served as a snack or instead of a full meal. For appetizers, plan on 3-5 pieces per person, but if appetizers are the only course, aim for 8-12 pieces per person. Consider the length of the event and the dietary habits of your guests, as longer events or more substantial items may require more food.

Things to consider when calculating appetizer servings include:

🔺Type of event
Before the main course: Aim for 2-3 pieces per person for a sit-down dinner, or 3-5 pieces for a more casual setting.
Appetizer-only event: Guests will need more, so plan on 8-12 pieces per person per hour.

🔺Duration of event
Short event (1-2 hours): A few pieces are enough.
Long event: Increase the number of appetizers per person to compensate for the extended time.

🔺Guest List Size
A larger number of guests may often require a slight increase in the total amount of food.

🔺General Guidelines
Formal Settings: Guests tend to eat less, so a good estimate is 3-4 pieces per person before the main course.
Casual Settings: Plan on 4-6 pieces per person.
Cocktail Parties: Guests will eat 4-6 appetizers per hour.
Heavy Hors d'oeuvres: Guests will eat more, about 5-8 pieces per person.

By considering these factors, you can ensure that your guests are pleasantly satisfied without feeling too full before the main event or, if the food is an appetizer, without feeling too hungry.
