On Saturday we had dinner with two of our Spanish good
friends. We had been talking about it
for a while and trying to decide what each one would make for the others to
try. We stock up with the wine and each
couple made a few tapas, the result was a fun dinner with way too much
delicious food and a mild headache the next morning. But it was so worth it!! Our friends made a Spanish omelet with
caramelized onions (mmmmmm) which I will soon attempt and post in the blog and
a delicious salad. I prepared a couple
of seafood recipes. The first one was a
tuna tartar (Tartar de Atún) inspired in Emeril Lagasse’s recipe and the second one a Crema de Almejas, a dip prepared with cockles in brine and cream
cheese.
An advantage of these two cold tapas is that they can be
prepared way before a dinner party so you can just pull them out of the fridge
in the moment you want to serve them.
Here’s how they
looked like.
