Beggar's purse is an American bite-sized appetizer originating from New York City. The appetizer consists of a small crêpe that's topped with a teaspoon of fine caviar and a dab of crème fraiche. The edges of the small crêpe are pulled up around the filling, then tied with strips of chive in order to resemble a purse.

The dish was invented by Barry and Susan Wine in their restaurant The Quilted Giraffe during the 1980s. They were inspired by a dish they'd tried in France. Ever since, their dish was copied throughout the world, so the term beggar's purse has become somewhat generic that's applied to most filled dishes tied in a similar fashion.
