What are hot snacks?
A hot snack, in fact, can be any dish. For example, boiled, fried or baked vegetables, hot sandwiches, sandwiches and toasts, battered fish or poultry, croutons and julienne. Each of these treats can be a great start to the main meal.
If etiquette requires a knife when serving other dishes, then you can eat snacks without it. And this will not be considered “bad manners” because the main rule of their preparation is to cut them quite finely.
They are usually served in small quantities and without garnish as such, but often with sauce. At the same time, you can put these treats on the table in the same dishes in which they were prepared.
