Cicchetti
Brief summary - Cicchetti
Cicchetti (Italian pronunciation: (tʃikˈkɛtti)), also sometimes spelled cichetti or called cicheti in Venetian language, are small snacks or side dishes, typically served in traditional bà cari (cicchetti bars or osterie) in Venice, Italy. Common cicchetti include tiny sandwiches, plates of olives or other vegetables, halved hard boiled eggs, small servings of a combination of one or more of seafood, meat and vegetable ingredients laid on top of a slice of bread or polenta, and very small servings of typical full-course plates. Like Spanish tapas, one can also make a meal of cicchetti by ordering multiple plates.Normally not a part of home cooking, the cicchetti’s importance lies not just in the food itself, but also in how, when and where they are eaten: with fingers and toothpicks,.
