Thanks to its emphasis on technique and careful use of ingredients, French cuisine has earned its reputation as gourmet. (Gourmet It is a French word, after all!) but you hardly need the skills of a Le Cordon Bleu graduate to cook it. This authentic French appetizer is easy to prepare and will have your guests wondering where you learned to make such a luxurious appetizer Appetizers.

Cheese puffs (gougeres)
Cream puffs made with cheese, goggles go with almost anything. You can also freeze them unbaked to have on hand for last-minute entertaining.
Peach and goat cheese tartine
Tartine is simply toasted, sliced bread with toppings. We love the combination of tangy goat cheese (a French favorite), thyme, and peaches here.
Salmon terrine
“Salmon, butter, Dijon mustard and fresh tarragon are just some of what makes this traditional French delight so delicious. This no-bake version is more like a spread, and is perfect for casual parties. You can make it with any type of crockery or bowl. Pair it with Slice toasted baguette for an appetizer or eat it as a salad,” says recipe contributor Chemnantis.
Coquilles Saint-Jacques
The French refer to sea scallops as Coquel Saint Jacques (English: St. James shells) They are often baked in the shells, swimming in Gruyere cheese and cream sauce.
Pissaladiere (onion, olive and anchovy pizza)
“Pesaladier It is a pizza-like dish made in southern France, around Nice, Marseille, Toulon, and the Var region, and in the Italian region of Liguria, especially in the province of Imperia. It can be considered a type of white pizza, as tomatoes are not used in it. “The dough is usually a thicker bread dough than classic Italian pizza dough, and the traditional toppings consist of caramelized (almost pureed) onions, olives, garlic and anchovies,” says recipe contributor Charlie_one.
Easy chicken liver pate
French for “paste,” paste traditionally consists of poultry livers, brandy, and spices. You can also make spreads with seafood, pork (like Chef John Pat de Campagne), and even vegetables for a meat-free version. But we suggest starting with an easy chicken liver dish, served with crusty bread.
Brie cheese appetizer
Who can resist Brie bread? This luxurious appetizer takes just 10 minutes to prepare using puff pastry from the freezer aisle and a jar of apricot jam.
Serville de Canute
“Cervelle de canut is a French specialty from Lyon that literally means ‘silk worker’s mind,’ named after 19th-century Lyon silk weavers who were called ‘canuts.’ “It’s a wonderful meal,” says recipe contributor Stella. Spread it on crusty bread.”
Escargot mushroom
This quick and easy way to stuff garlic snails into mushroom caps instead of shells, then finish them in the microwave. No one has to know.
Tarte flambé (Alsatian bacon and onion tart)
Chef John
“Although this pizza is found almost everywhere, in certain places on the German/French border, it has the name tarte flambée which is quite similar to the dessert,” says Chef John, the recipe creator. “Here we use bacon, onions, and cream cheese mixture as toppings.”
Chef John’s tomato tart
Topped with red tomatoes and fresh green herbs, this Southern French-inspired tart will stand out on any table.
Duck rillette
“Duck loaf is one of the most amazing culinary magic tricks ever. Although most of the fat is made up of fairly lean duck meat, by emulsifying it in a little butter, duck fat and duck gelatin, you’ll swear the finished product contains on the fat content of the finest foie gras,” says recipe creator Chef John.
