Thanksgiving appetizers are one of the few parts of the feast where you get to be creative. With a roast turkey all but set in stone, and sides like cranberry sauce and mashed potatoes pretty much mandatory, think of the dips, snacks, and other quick bites you serve before dinner as an opportunity to really express yourself as a cook. They’re also a great way to introduce some flavors beyond the simple salt-and-pepper seasonings that dominate so much of the holiday spread. That’s why our favorite Thanksgiving appetizers are simple yet flavorful dips like peppery muhammara or curried sweet potato hummus that wake up the palette, miso-y soups that beat the November chill, and snacky bites like crunchy crudités and crispy fried zucchini fritters . Be careful though—we wouldn’t want to spoil anyone’s appetite, now would we?

Triple-Threat Onion Galette
Not just a clever name, this savory tart combines three alliums (scallions, garlic, and onion) for maximum flavor and crispy-jammy texture. The key to the flaky crust is to move fast! Rolling and folding the dough while the butter is still cold creates distinct layers of butter and flour that will steam apart during baking, making the crust light and flaky.

Dilly Beans and Peas on Ricotta Toast
A lemony, herby bean salad with lots of crunch from sliced snap peas is good. But when it's piled on top of garlic-rubbed, ricotta-spread toast, it's even better.

Miso Corn Soup
White miso is the mildest and sweetest type, which is why we call for a lot of it in this warming soup. Any less and you might not detect it at all.

Quince Jam with Cardamom and Pistachios
There’s no substitute for quince, which is closely related to apples and pears. If you can’t find it fresh, look for a high-quality quince jam from a Middle Eastern market.

Curried Sweet Potato Hummus
Because sweet potatoes can be a bit heavy, let the food processor run at least a full minute, better yet two, so the texture of this hummus is extra light and smooth.
