Beef liver liver cake (festive snacks).

One of my favorite snacks is the liver cake. Moreover, it can be baked from any liver: chicken, pork, beef. Take the one you love more. Everyone will like this dish, except the inveterate, not liver lovers. Although this snack is called “cake”, it is prepared quickly. At the festive table, such a snack looks very beautiful, and children also eat it with pleasure. I am writing about children because I know: many of them do not eat the liver, but in this version they don’t refuse it.

Sauce (layer) can be done in different ways. It all depends on the taste. I really like the carrot and onion version with sour cream. Instead of sour cream can be used.

If you do not like carrots, you can take fried champignons with onions, or paprika with onions, or all together. You can also add to the "cream" finely chopped boiled eggs. Many people like the easiest and fastest version of the sauce - garlic mayonnaise. Cooking option choose to your taste.

Ingredients for liver cake:

dough:

• beef liver (you can any) - 500 gr.
• raw eggs - 2 pcs. large or 3 pcs. smaller
• flour - 4 tbsp. l
• salt, black pepper, spices - to taste

sauce:

• carrots - 1 pc. average
• onion - 2 pcs. medium
• sour cream (mayonnaise) - 180 gr.
• vegetable oil for frying (the best option is olive oil)
• greens, boiled eggs for decoration

Cooking method.

1. First, let's do the liver. It must be rinsed well. If it is chicken liver, check for any gallbladder damage. If at least one gets into the dough, the taste will be bitter and tasteless.

2. Now you need to chop the liver. I always do this with a blender (which is done in 2 minutes), but you can skip through a meat grinder.

3. Add eggs to the liver, flour, salt, spices. Mix together with a spoon or blender.

4. Everything, dough is ready in 3 minutes. Now you need to bake liver pancakes. Pour some cooking oil on a preheated frying pan and pour our dough. Make pancake thickness to your taste. But it is better not to make it very fat. When the pancake is reddened on one side, turn it over and fry a little more.

5. When the pancakes are ready, leave them to cool and cook the sauce.

6. Finely chop the onion, rub the carrot on a fine grater. Put the vegetables in a pre-heated pan, save them, bring to taste: salt and pepper.

7. Now collect the cake. The first pancake is smeared with sour cream (mayonnaise), spread vegetables on top. You can immediately mix the sour cream with vegetables and coat each pancake with ready-made sauce.

8. Decorate the cake with greens and yolk (or as you wish).

9. Leave the cake for 1 hour to soak. Enjoy your meal!

  Eggplant rolls with cheese - a snack on a festive table.

Eggplant rolls - a very tasty snack for the festive table. This snack can be made with different fillings. Eggplant for rolls need to take the young, in which the seeds have not yet begun. I will write a delicious recipe for rolls with hard cheese and walnuts. Eggplant and nuts - the perfect combination.

But you can make such rolls of cottage cheese with sour cream, garlic and greens. Another good option toppings is fried champignons with ham and mayonnaise. You can also stuff eggplant rolls with vegetables.

Ingredients:

• eggplants - 2 pcs.
• walnuts - 50 gr.
• hard cheese - 50 gr.
• dill - half-sheaf
• mayonnaise - 1 tbsp. l
• cooking oil for frying

Cooking method:

As I wrote above, take young eggplants. They need to be washed, cut lengthwise into 0.5 cm thick plates. Salt each plate well and leave for half an hour to leave bitterness. After this time, rinse the eggplants in cold water and dry with paper towels. If so prepare eggplants, then they take less oil when frying.

Now fry the eggplants in heated vegetable oil for 5 minutes on each side. Put the fried eggplants on a paper towel and let the excess oil soak.

Cooking stuffing. Finely chop the nuts, grate the cheese, finely chop the dill. Mix together all the ingredients: nuts, cheese, dill, mayonnaise. Now we spread the filling exactly on the strips of eggplants and roll up the rolls.

Eggplants should be rolled up while they are warm, because cold ones will not wrap well. Therefore, the filling is better to do in advance.

As a rule, they serve to whet the appetite or are a snack for alcoholic beverages. In addition, the snack can be a snack between meals.

The history of appetizers is directly related to the Russian table, where pickles, pickled and pickled vegetables, cranberries, rutabaga and ashberries were served as a pre-main dish. But it was a menu of commoners, while boyar snacks were much more modest - delicious milk pigs with horseradish, black and red caviar, homemade smoked sausages, simple aspic, jelly and various aspic - all this was served just before the main course. and was snacks, that is, a light snack.

The history of appetizers as we see them now began in Russia from the 18th century. Until that time, a cold breakfast was served as a snack, served at home from the food left over from dinner. Due to this, many cold dishes of Russian cuisine, in particular, all kinds of pickles and smoked products became known as snacks. In addition, the snack meant any product that should be used in the bite to something.

Snacks in a more usual - less nourishing - form for us appeared at the beginning of the 18th century in Europe, where it was very fashionable to replace the main dishes with original eateries prepared in a hurry. It is believed that this is the first time that the buffet and snacks originated for the buffet, where the same ingredients are decorated as in the main dishes - meat, fish, root vegetables, cheese and fruit - but in a more compact version or, as it is also called, buffet style.

The greatest variety of such dishes is noted in Russian cookery, although they are present in the cookery of many other countries. For example, in the UK, appetizer is called appetizer, in France - hors d "oeuvres, in Greece - meze, in Spain - tapas, in Italy - antipasto, in the Arab world - mazza. The list of countries, of course, is not limited to this, it is much wider.

An interesting fact from the history of appetizers relates to this type of dish in Sweden, or rather its presentation. So as a snack used bread and all that goes with it. At the same time, this food was called smörgåsbord, which literally means a sandwich table. So, this snack was served in the room preceding the dining room. Everyone, on the way to the dining room, had to treat themselves to a tasty sandwich and only then start the main meal.

They served snacks, usually 2-3 hours before the main meal. The description of the dishes served in their capacity deserves a separate, independent article. Subsequently, the time for serving snacks more and more approached the main meal, and, subsequently, became its integral part. As for the variety of dishes, it only became richer. Therefore, today it is not surprising that several different snacks on the table become a full-fledged lunch or dinner.

In more detail the characteristic of snacks we will consider in the subsequent sections of this article.
