List of hors d'oeuvre

This is a list of notable hors d'oeuvre, also referred to as appetizers or starters, which may be served either hot or cold.They are food items served before the main courses of a meal, and are also sometimes served at the dinner table as a part of a meal.Many cultures serve dips, such as baba ghanoush, chili con queso, hummus, and tzatziki with bread or vegetables as hors d'oeuvre.If the period between when guests arrive and when the meal is eaten (for example during a cocktail hour) is extended these might also serve the purpose of sustaining guests during the wait, in the same way that apéritifs are served as a drink before meals.Hors d'oeuvre are sometimes served with no meal afterward; this is the case with many reception and cocktail party events.
Some hors d'oeuvre: mozzarella cheese sprinkled with basil flowers, black Greek olives, sun-dried tomatoes, salami and Spanish Lomo Ibérico
