Skewers - 35 cooking recipes

Any food that does not arouse interest, being a slide on a plate, looks appetizing and attractive on skewers. It is also very convenient, because cutlery is not needed. There are two main ways of preparing dishes on skewers - vertical and horizontal. In the first case, you need to choose the lower base - on which the entire pyramid will stand. A piece of hard cheese, sausage, or bread is suitable for these purposes. And decorate the top with the most fragile or soft ingredients. If the arrangement on the tray is horizontal, then there is no fundamental difference in the order of piercing the products; it is enough to be guided by your own taste. Recipes for dishes on skewers are not only canapés and other tapas, as the Spaniards say, they are also kebabs. Meat and vegetables are removed from long iron skewers after frying. But fish kebab is served to the table with chopsticks, because their length is no more than 30 cm. You can buy suitable products in the store - plastic, metal, bamboo, with a beautifully decorated top, or you can use ordinary toothpicks.
