Verrines and Cuillères

Verrines
In recent years verrines have become very popular in France for appetizers. They are small glasses that contain two or three bites of some yummy combination. One uses a small spoon to enjoy the contents, which are truly limitless in their possibilities.

A craze for cuillères, or spoons, has followed close on the heels of the verrine. Here a bite of food will be artfully arranged on a special spoon - many times these look a little like Chinese soup spoons.
