It is noteworthy that dessert is not always sweet, and sweet is not always dessert. There are just a lot of such examples. For example, pies are a dessert, but they are savory or pork in pineapple sauce, in principle, a sweet dish, but you can not call it a dessert. Cheese is another example of a dessert, but it can also be far from sweet.
The word dessert comes from French, which is not surprising at all and means approximately "to clear the table." Today, in many countries and cultures, dessert is the final dish, no matter how sweet it is or not. In Russia, the word "dessert" began to be used at the beginning of the 18th century, before that it was replaced by "snacks", but with the advent of "snacks" it became rather inconvenient to use it.
Often the dessert is associated with cakes, which already originates in Italy, the word means "twist, twist". By the way, the expression “they don’t argue about tastes” came from there, but it sounded like this - “they don’t argue about cakes”. The most famous dessert in Italy is tiramisu, the name consists of three words that can be translated "lift me up." There is a version that this is due to the fact that it is very high in calories, but there is another - "lift" my mood - because of the combination of coffee and chocolate.
According to the rules, sweet wines, liqueurs and brandies are served with desserts, but they are not required. When serving the dessert table, fruit is always used.
