    A Quick Note

    I wanted to take a minute to say that I do try and weigh as many of the ingredients as I can. I think it helps make recipe results more consistent. Of course professional bakers even measure liquids by weight. I don't mind pulling out my little digital scale when I need to.

    Catagories

    Canapes

    Cherry Tomatoes filled with Pesto
    Potato Pancakes with Smoked Salmon
    cream cheese and caviar toasts

    I don't have many canapes here. The ones I share are super quick, Your guests will appreciate the effort.
