Literally meaning "before the meal," antipasto refers to the first course of a traditional Italian meal. Usually, it is an assortment of appetizers such as cheese, smoked meats, olives, fish and marinated vegetables. It signifies the start of the meal, and its main purpose is to extend the meal experience. The meal is drawn out in various courses, and diners take this opportunity to enjoy the food and conversation with fellow diners.
