Simple and elegant, crudités are traditional French appetizers consisting of raw vegetables which can be sliced or left intact. The vegetables typically used for crudités include carrots, celery, bell peppers, cucumbers, asparagus spears, broccoli, and cauliflower. They can be served with dips such as vinaigrette, tapenade, hummus, or mayonnaise on the side, or those can be drizzled on top of the vegetables. The name crudités comes from the French word crudité, meaning rawness, but in the culinary world, the word is always used in its plural form.
