Venetian Cicchetti

By Matthew Luca


Cicchetti

I Heard all about "The Cicchetti" when planning a trip to Venice last year, It would be a Venetian style of tapas that is served in Cicchetti bars that also serve an aperitif of your chosen wine or Prosecco.
It can come in many varieties and combinations so rather than give you a recipe I'll let you get creative with your own taste buds.
Traditionally they are served on sliced baguette and sometimes slices of polenta, they would normally include olive tapenades, eggs,  Artichoke, fish and cured meats as toppings. 
Cicchetti can be served as a side dish, or as appetisers for dinner parties.
