I know it is sooo very pretentious but I want to do some amuse bouche for Christmas day.
I really like those porcelain spoons they often servce amuse bouche on at posh restaurants so think I might get some as a little chrissie pressie to myself - all I need now are some recipes.
Has anyone got any good recipes they would be willing to share as I have searched online and haven't found anything suitable.

In the very fancy restuarant hubby and I went to the day we got wed we have 'duck straching' with our pre dinner drinks - like a posh version of pork strachings made with duck skin. We then had cod cheeks s as the amuse bouche before our starter proper...we also got bread with 3 different butters inc toast flavour!
Being a bit of a pleb I've never been entirely sure of the difference between a canape and an amuse bouch so maybe search for canape recipes?
Or how about one fo these ideas

what about little cups of soup? something like pumpkin and orange? or beetroot with vodka?
Or a grapefruit sorbet?Man plans and God laughs...Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry. But by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it introduces the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.0 -
Sainsburies mag and December Woman & Home both have recipes for pastry spoons with fillings - it seems to be the thing to do this Christmas.0

Have a look at these pretty pictures here.
The problem with googling is that amuse bouche is a term primarily used in England and the US - the more usual phrase is amuse-gueule, but because gueule is the word for an animal's mouth (in other words, the phrase means amuse your gob) it seems to have been considered a bit too unrefined for us posh Brits
Any you fancy the look of I'll happily translate the recipe for you...0 -
Have a look at these in Lakeland too
I saw them and loved them - but couldn't justify them at the time.....
