From Albert Brevia:
The way I served these 10 delicious tapas was over a piece of bread, like they do in tapas bars in Spain. So the bread is not included as an ingredient, neither is salt or pepper. Just make sure to use baguette bread, it makes all the difference in the flavor.
TIPS & TRICKS to make this recipe:
As I stated earlier, make sure to use baguette bread, I cut mine into
1-inch thick diagonal slices and lightly toasted them. The Manchego
cheese I used was a mild one, but you can use a stronger cheese if you
prefer. I also used an Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil in some of the tapas. The one I used was from Apollo,
an absolute flavor bomb that is seriously becoming my go-to EVOO. The
ingredients below are to make 3 servings from each tapa, so if you need
more, just double up on the ingredients.
