TWO SEAFOOD TAPAS YOU MUST TRY


April 5th, 2013

    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.
