Tapas
In Spain, tapas is considered to be more than a simple meal, tapas is part of
culture of Spain. The word itself comes from the Spanish word for "cover" or
"cover". One of the opinions that tapas was originally
cuts of meat, vegetables and bread, which was covered with a glass of wine,
so that insects do not get there. According to another version, the king of Castile and Leon
Alfonso X the Wise introduced the law according to which in refectory and taverns
it was impossible to serve alcoholic drinks without snacks, so that visitors would not
drank on an empty stomach and behaved appropriately. In modern
tapas look something like this:

some or all dishes are eaten by hand: for example, in Ethiopian
in the kitchen, all dishes are consumed by wrapping them in a cake called

Man is a contradictory and unpredictable creature. Why, one wonders, it was necessary to break so many copies, imposing such an object as a fork on everyone around, and then proclaim the rejection of cutlery? "Be closer to nature and to each other - eat with your hands!" - this is the motto of many progressive chefs of trendy city restaurants.

Finger food (from English finger food - "finger food") - the newest trend promoted by urban establishments cateringwho are predicted a brilliant future.

Eating with your hands is not unusual in many countries. In China, the word "pilaf" is translated as "finger-grabbing rice": in order to enjoy this fragrant and nutritious dish, you need to form a ball out of rice, hook the meat and spices, dip it into the sauce if desired and send it into your mouth. Similarly, pilaf is eaten in Azerbaijan and India. Taking care of his beloved girl, the Hindu will not fail to invite her to pilaf: grabbing rice from her plate with his hands, he thereby communicates his tender feelings.

Mexican fajitos (meat stewed with vegetables), oriental shawarma, doner or Greek gyros, Georgian khinkali dumplings, Ethiopian dishes wrapped in flatbread, Italian pizza, Spanish tapas, Chinese street fast food, finally, our pies, rolls, donuts and pancakes - all this is food, without any hesitation and ulterior motives absorbed by the hands. Big fans of finger food are Americans with their hamburgers, hot dogs, chips, fries and popcorn.

Traditionally, finger food is a lifesaver for house parties where many guests are invited. By the way, guests can be involved in the process of preparing snacks - cutting meat, fish, vegetables and fruits, making sandwiches and sauces. This will help create a relaxed, trusting atmosphere, make friends who are not familiar with each other. The "hand-held format" of the event allows guests to move freely around the room, and not sit tightly sandwiched between two neighbors, which makes them more relaxed and inclined to conversation and new acquaintances. And also eliminates the need to crawl under the table for a dropped fork or knife with a thousand awkward apologies.

IN recent times finger food becomes a highlight and fashion trend world famous restaurants and cafes. According to the assurances of the cooks, even the most inexperienced person in food can awaken a gourmet in himself by giving up the knife and fork.

One of the fiercest defenders of eating habits is the chef of the Danish restaurant Noma, the best restaurant of the world in 2010 (ranked by The S. Pellegrino World's 50 Best Restaurants). In his opinion, human nature has a habit of eating with his hands, and intermediaries between a person and food in the form of cutlery are not needed and even harm the human body, since they make it impossible to touch food with the help of receptors at the fingertips and send the necessary impulses to brain. These pulses contain information about the temperature and consistency of food, preparing the body for its assimilation. Therefore, if you want to be healthy, eat with your hands.

And this is not so ignoble, because we got along with a fork only a couple of centuries ago, and before that all of Europe, including monarchs (even such a connoisseur of gourmet food as the French Sun King Louis XIV), ate with great appetite with her hands.

Building on these traditions, the world's best chefs have proclaimed a return to roots. Asians also supported the trend. Japanese chefs reminded the world that sushi, rolls and sashimi were originally eaten only with hands, and sticks make the meal too serious and pompous.

Food is needed not only to supply the body with energy, it is also one of the most important pleasures in life. Therefore, let everyone rejoice - eyes, hands, mouth, and stomach, and all unnecessary formalities should be eliminated. Moreover, eating with your hands unites, but isn't this what is needed in our disconnected world with its individualistic values \u200b\u200bthat are beginning to get annoying?

Chefs of expensive restaurants in Sharm El Sheikh share the same opinion. For example, the restaurant at the Ritz-Carlton argues that the future belongs to the so-called lounge restaurants, in which almost all food can be eaten with your hands. The modern man is fed up with the agonizing expectation of dishes and their traditional "chain" change, which do not allow him to relax and force him to spend too much time on food.

In order not to lose face, the chefs of many Moscow restaurants are as sophisticated as they can. Some dishes are prepared in two formats, one of which is handmade. Moreover, such dishes include not only simple dishes, but also the most exquisite delicacies from the chef. To defuse the atmosphere and create an atmosphere of relaxed ease, a number of restaurants offer guests to take off their shoes and sit right on the floor on soft carpets and pillows, and food is brought on small tables.

And what kind of finger food connoisseurs children can become! Treat yourself and your children with simple dishes without spoons, forks and a knife, and, perhaps, there will be much less complaints about the kids' poor appetite.

Although finger foods (from english words finger - "fingers" and food - "food") and seem like a newfangled invention, they appeared a long time ago. Moreover, in almost every traditional cuisine you can find a dozen or two dishes that are very convenient to eat with your hands. These are pizza, gyros, shawarma, tapas, chips ... In some cultures, the use of appliances for certain foods is generally considered an insult.
