Snack ideas for between meals: snacks and tea-time bites are the small pleasures of the day: spring rolls, pan con tomate, dumplings, pastries and dips. They are quick to make, easy to share, and often the most memorable part of a food culture — the food eaten standing up, with friends, between errands.
The best snack recipes are simple and forgiving: a few good ingredients, a hot pan or a sharp knife, and a sauce or dip to bring it together. They work as appetisers, after-school food, or a light evening bite with tea or a drink.
