Unusual skewer. Pancake Canapes Recipe
This beautiful and convenient snack can be served in accordance with your imagination and taste. In any case, it is able to decorate your holiday table. Each canapé will require one plastic skewer. The recipe suggests that you make pancakes yourself with half a liter of milk, three eggs, two glasses of flour and a spoonful of sugar. If possible, they should be as thin as possible and at the same time strong.
Cool the pancakes and cook the filling. To do this, take half a kilogram of cottage cheese or uniform fat cottage cheese, half a small can of olives (seedless) and a medium piece of slightly salted salmon. Other fish can also be used - chum salmon, trout, even herring. First, make something like a pancake cake with a layer of cheese and fish. The first pancake should be greased with curd cheese, on the next - with a thin layer, spread the pieces of salmon. Thus, alternate layers.
After the pancakes and the filling are over, you will have the task of cutting the canapes. Each of them will be held together by one skewer. The recipe suggests that pancakes should not move when sliced.
Otherwise it will turn out unaesthetically. In order to be able to conveniently and beautifully cut the layers of pancakes and fillings, use a cookie cutter, a pizza knife or special forms for canapes. You can immediately fix the pancakes with skewers so that they do not move. Top with each serving of appetizers, decorate with olives, herbs, slices of tomato.

Take half a kilogram of puff pastry, 300 g of small fresh champignons, 150 g of Gouda or Cheddar cheese, egg, sesame, pepper. For each serving of snacks, you will need a separate wooden skewer - the recipe suggests that they will be long enough. Rinse and dry the mushrooms, sprinkle with salt and ground pepper. Fry in a dry frying pan for five minutes with seasoning. Cool on a plate. Dice the cheese into cubes comparable in size to mushrooms. Defrost the dough and, cutting it into strips 2 cm wide, proceed to assemble the snack. String on a skewer , alternating, pieces of cheese and mushrooms. Leave a couple of centimeters around the edges. Wrap each skewer with puff pastry. Make sure that the strip tightly surrounds the filling, otherwise the cheese, if warmed up, may leak. Fasten and glue the edges - then in the process of baking the snack will retain its shape. To do this, moisten the dough with a little cold water. Put on a baking sheet over the parchment, grease with yolk, sprinkle with sesame seeds, bake for a quarter of an hour until a crust appears.
