Oh well… or as a Spaniard would say: Oh-lée Oleoleoleeeée (…or do I mix this up with the football maniacs in the arena across the street?) Oh well… ;)
It is time again for a little blog special! “Los Wochos” on Bake to the roots! For those who are not familiar wit that spanishgerman term – it has been used by a big fast food chain here in Germany for their ads when they had special mexican burgers on the menu…. never mind – I think it only makes sense when you live in Germany… :P
Week two of the Spanish Special! Last week was all about tapas – this week will include some baking again – just not today :)
You might think “Oh that looks like french fries with ketchup and mayonnaise!” – well, it’s not! ;P The “patatas” may look like a rustic version of french fries, but the sauce definitely makes the difference here. No super-sweet ketchup. This tomato sauce packs a punch! Of course, only if you want to, but you should go all the way. It will taste much better when the sauce is hot ;)
Tortilla is something I only recently started to really like. I have made it several times already, but I was never really satisfied with the result. Taste was great, but the looks needed definitely some improvement! I had big problems with the coordination of my arms, eyes and the pan when it was time to turn the tortilla. It is almost as bad as making a big Rösti… ok that is actually much worse ;P
I guess you could say this is the equivalent of roasted peanuts in American Sports Bars ;) Just better!
Sweet and salty – always a winning combination. For tapas too :)
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
