Canapes with shrimps - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute fresh shrimp with frozen shrimp?

Yes, you can use frozen shrimp. Just thaw them completely in the refrigerator before peeling and skewering for best results.

How long can I store these shrimp canapes in the fridge?

These canapes are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store them covered in the fridge for up to 24 hours. The cucumber may release moisture over time.

Can I make these canapes vegetarian?

Absolutely! Replace the shrimp with marinated tofu cubes or halloumi cheese for a delicious vegetarian alternative.

What's the best way to serve these canapes?

These skewers look beautiful arranged on a platter with lemon wedges and fresh herbs. Serve with a side of garlic aioli or cocktail sauce for dipping.

Can I prepare the components ahead of time and assemble later?

Yes, you can prep the ingredients separately (peel shrimp, chop cucumber, etc.) 1 day ahead, but assemble just before serving to maintain freshness.

How can I make this recipe low-carb?

The recipe is naturally low-carb. For even fewer carbs, reduce the cherry tomatoes or replace them with bell pepper cubes.

Can I use different vegetables for the skewers?

Definitely! Try zucchini rounds, bell peppers, or small mushrooms for variety - just cut them to similar sizes for even cooking.

How many skewers should I plan per person for appetizer portions?

Plan for 3-4 skewers per person as part of an appetizer spread, or 5-6 if serving as a main dish.
