A variety of seafood is used to create delicious snacks. They are suitable both for an ordinary family meal and for decorating a festive feast. A variety of seafood appetizer recipes will help you choose the most suitable option for each case. The high protein content in such dishes and low calorie content allows them to be included in the menu of people who follow diets. More burning, in the South American style, more tender, in the French style, or exotic, in the style of the land of the rising sun – seafood snacks can compete with traditional salads of meat or chicken. Not only shrimps become the basis of snacks that delight lovers of sea food.
Not only shrimps are suitable for their preparation: mussels, octopus, squid, scallops, cuttlefish and crab meat can solo or perform in company with each other. The task of combining seafood with each other is greatly simplified, given that they all like the same spices. In seafood snacks, you can equally add fresh or dried Mediterranean herbs: oregano, thyme, rosemary, and cilantro together with cumin, onion, garlic and hot pepper – in the South American manner. Beloved by many sushi and rolls are in fact also seafood snacks. And you can prepare seafood snacks in the French style, beautiful and delicate.
Do not forget about hot seafood appetizers – this is almost the main dish, except that a smaller portion. And seafood looks great in fish snacks, giving them an additional texture and a new taste.
Snacks from raw seafood – oysters with a drop of lemon juice, lightly pickled scallops or shrimp – are fine, but it’s still better to eat them near the coast or in places that deserve unconditional trust. But even in the conditions of land life, you should not deny yourself the pleasure, because the choice of seafood appetizer recipes is so great!
“Mussels in white wine” will not be cooked in a childish way. Although white wine is rather our drink, female, so we know better how to use it. For piquancy, I added tangerine to the dish.
Mussels “Mariniere” (free. “moules marinieres”) is a traditional dish of the largest fair in France, which is held every first Sunday of September in Lille. I cook these mussels all year round.
