Bacon Wrapped Dates

Tuesday, January 25, 2011

What do nearly all tapas restaurants have in common? Bacon Wrapped Dates! Usually stuffed with almonds, they are the perfect nuggets of salty wrapped around sweet. Each bite is intensely flavored, exuding a smokey aroma.  These morsels are worthy of that cliche label, “match made in heaven.”

Every time I go out for tapas with the girls, they order the bacon wrapped dates, without fail and usually order seconds. If you’ve somehow missed this delicious treat, head out to Alta, Pipa, Boqueria, Sala 19, or make it yourself. It’s laughably easy!

Haroseth Balls

Wednesday, March 31, 2010

The delay in posting was due to technical difficulties. Yes, it’s quite technically impossible to overcome food coma, at least for me. Has anyone found a cure? Passover Seder on Monday night and Tuesday night is the probably cause, but I can’t promise to refrain from this dangerous activity. Isn’t there like a morning after pill for over-whelming meat consumption? I guess Korean BBQ for lunch didn’t help. In all seriousness, Passover Seder is full of wonderful foods that are symbolic and carry on the traditions. Without getting into too much detail (which I probably can’t on this subject) Haroseth Balls (sometimes Charoset) represent the mortar used when Jews were enslaved in Egypt.
