An appetizer is a small dish served before the main course, designed to stimulate the palate and kick off a meal. These bite-sized portions can range from simple options like salads or soups to more elaborate dishes such as stuffed mushrooms, bruschetta, or spring rolls. Appetizers often draw from diverse culinary traditions—Italian crostini, Japanese edamame, or Middle Eastern hummus are popular examples. Many appetizers feature nutrient-rich ingredients like fresh vegetables, lean proteins, or whole grains, offering a healthy start to the meal. However, some can be high in calories, sodium, or saturated fats, especially if deep-fried or paired with creamy sauces. Choosing lighter, plant-based options is a great way to enjoy appetizers while maintaining balanced nutrition. Perfect for sharing, appetizers bring variety and flavor to gatherings, making them an integral part of global dining experiences.
