Описание: Breakfast, lunch, and dinner all have their merits—books have been written,
families raised, and important business conducted over all of these
meals. But for my family and me, most of our meals are built from snacks;
delicious ingredients arranged into an assortment of small plates. Lively,
fun, and sophisticated, these snacks are born from the union of the Italian
tradition of antipasti and the modern American lifestyle. The pace at the
table is leisurely, and the time spent in the kitchen is just as relaxed.
Small plates, bar snacks, antipasti, and tapas—these are familiar
terms to most of the American restaurant-going public. Social and stylish,
this type of cuisine is the basis for my weekends with friends and
family, midweek nights at home with the neighbors, or just the kids on a
Sunday morning. Like everybody else, I don’t have the time to make
elaborate meals—I save that for holidays. But we do a lot of entertaining
all year long, and this is the food that makes it possible. Beside the ease
of advance preparation, the prolonged nibbling of snacks and small
plates is conducive to extended conversation and elongated lounging—
both of which should be national pastimes.
