Chef's Note
The Art of Entertaining
These are bite-sized sandwiches about the size of half a baguette slice. The red lobster and green leaves provide the perfect Christmas note. For a sophisticated garnish, I recommend using a pastry bag to pipe a tiny rosette of aioli onto each canapé. If you're not a garlic lover, replace the aioli with some good homemade mayonnaise.
