Terrifying food for a Halloween party

The Halloween party is not only about costumes and decoration, but food is also very important during this party. For this reason, in America (where the celebration originated from) they complete every last detail in order to make this party the most terrifying and original of the year.

In PregDream we tell you some simple recipes to make different dishes, sweet and savory, for Halloween night with family or friends.

SAVORY DISHES

To make salty food dishes for Halloween we must not be experts in the kitchen. In supermarkets there are a great variety of pica picas already prepared for this celebration, such as chips or hooks with drawings of monsters or ghosts for children and adults.

– Frankfurt fingers

One dish that we can make ourselves very easily is Frankfurt’s fingers. We will buy packages of frankfurters and with a sharp knife, and being very careful not to cut ourselves, we will cut a piece on one end simulating a nail and we will make a couple of cuts where we find the knuckles.

When we fry the sausages, the uncut part will be darker and the part of the cuts will be lighter, which will make it look even more real. We can decorate the plate with Ketchup so that they also look like bloody fingers.

– Real guts!

If we do not have great hobbies with food we can buy different parts of the animals in the butcher shop and cook them for our guests. One of them will be the brain that can be cooked fried and there are those who will have no problem eating it.

– Pumpkin for a vegetarian Halloween

For those of us who are not so daring, apart from the Frankfurters we can also cook a great salad or starter in the shape of a pumpkin. We can make it either from carrots to create the orange color of this vegetable or with hooks, we will design the outline and fill it with this ingredient.

We will leave some spaces to place the nose, eyes and mouth. If we have put carrots in the eyes, we can use small plates with hummus to accompany it and bread sticks or celery in the mouth. On the other hand, if we have used hooks for the orange in the eyes, nose and mouth we can put nuts or chips.

SWEET DISHES

Once we have eaten the terrifying salty dishes we can give way to the desserts that we will have cooked ourselves.

– Coffin cookies

We can make some simple conventional cookies, but with a coffin-shaped mold. Surely in kitchen stores there are a multitude of original molds for sweets and cookies these days, so if we do not find it in this way there will be many others. Strawberry jam will be our best ally to create a bloody look to any sweet we want to make.

– Bring the fruit to life

Another very original and healthy idea to create a dessert for Halloween is to decorate the fruit. Thus, we can make the same cuts that we have made in the pumpkin in an apple, which we can also eat, cut a banana in two and paint some eyes and a mouth with chocolate to make them look like little ghosts , put a green candy in the peeled mandarin oranges to look like small pumpkins, etcetera.

– Terrifying cupcakes

Finally, and one of the most popular desserts for Halloween, will be the cupcakes with icing of different colors and terrifying drawings: such as eyes, blood, spiders, green grass for the grave and many more. Here we explain how to make cupcake-style muffins.

With all these ideas and many more that you can find, you can make the most terrifying and original dishes this Halloween to leave your friends and family speechless and savoring your exquisite recipes. Remember that you can be as original as you want and that the important thing is to have made the effort during this special day.
