Orange and Olive Canapés

The orange and olive canapés are perfect to serve as an appetizer or for buffets, especially during the holidays, to delight and surprise your guests. I made the canapés using shortcrust pastry, then garnished them with orange, anchovy fillets, and black olives. This recipe is inspired by a dish that my parents have always made: an appetizer composed of orange slices, anchovies, and homemade black olives. These canapés are characterized by a mix of particular and engaging flavors.
