Potato Samosa Phyllo Triangles
Phyllo makes an ingenious wrapper for our take on the popular Indian snack, although the filling of garam-masala-spiced potatoes and peas is quite traditional.
French Onion Bites
Think of these as the best part of French onion soup, minus the broth. Don't be surprised if they disappear before you get a chance to sample one yourself!
Potted Crab
The delicate sweetness of Alaskan king crab is front and center in this easy-to-make appetizer.
Chorizo and Potato Spanish Tortilla Bites
Don't worry, your guests won't leave your party feeling hungry—these omelet-like hors d'oeuvres, not to be confused with Mexican flour tortillas, are as hearty as they are delicious.
Chicken and Cilantro Bites
This appetizer is our Asian take on the meatball, served with a quick-fix dipping sauce.
Mushroom and Butternut Squash Empanadas
When you're buying the dried chile for this recipe, be aware that a pasilla de Oaxaca is not the same as a regular pasilla chile.
Foie Gras with Date Purée and Pomegranate
In these spectacular cocktail-ring-proportioned bites, the date purée gives surprising depth to the silky richness of foie gras.
Parmesan Puffs
Egg whites give these quick cheesy nibbles their exceptionally light texture. Bite-size portions make them the perfect mouth-popping accompaniment to an aperitif.
Baked Shrimp Toasts
Shrimp toasts are traditionally fried, but our version of this classic Asian appetizer is baked, so your guests won't have to worry about greasy fingers.
Crouton Dice with Blue Cheese
These sexy little bites have a flavor as sharp as Dorothy Parker's wit. And because they're toasted with butter in the oven, they taste deliciously fried (only without the regret).
Garlic Herb Bread Twists
These bread twists are loaded with fresh rosemary and thyme, generously brushed with garlic oil, and, hot out of the oven, rolled in a mixture of Parmigiano-Reggiano and parsley.
Country Ham and Cheddar Pretzel Bites
Simultaneously salty, sharp, spicy, and sweet (in other words, completely irresistible), these nuggets are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser at any holiday party.
Green-Peppercorn Cornmeal Crackers
Cornmeal lends these crackers a golden glow and a nice crunch; lots of crushed green peppercorns provide an intriguing spiciness.
Chipotle Meatballs
Albóndigas (meatballs) are often served in a soup or sauce, but our skewered version needs only a squeeze of refreshing lime juice to bring out all the meaty richness.
Shrimp Butter Toasts
Spooned onto crunchy toast points, this buttery spread makes for tiny little bites with big sea flavor.
Cheddar Rice Fritters
A combination of tender rice, melting Cheddar, and a crisp bread-crumb shell, these irresistible nibbles will disappear almost before you finish frying.
Poppy Cheddar Moon Crackers
With cheese blended into the dough, these crackers become crisp snacks that keep your fingers reaching for another and then another and—well, you know how it goes.
Scallion Cilantro Pancakes
These scallion cilantro pancakes are supple and crêpelike rather than crisp—more Korean pa jon than Chinese scallion pancake.
Moroccan-Style Chicken Phyllo Rolls
These rolls are based loosely on b'stilla—a phyllo-crusted "pie" of shredded chicken that's been simmered with Moroccan spices and then mixed with egg and nuts.
Crisp Rosemary Flatbread
These are the easiest crackers you'll ever make: Rather than cutting the dough into small pieces, you bake three large pieces, then break them up to serve.
