Every year as the weather gets warmer and summer itches towards us, I get the fiercest craving for my favorite Spanish foods. Paella, gazpacho, pan con tomate, the list goes on. And just as often, I will jump the gun on at least one – when tomatoes start to pop up and look like the real thing, I can’t take it anymore.
And so here we were the Saturday of our little flower workshop. It was decided we would need some sustenance before all that “work”, so I made a quick tortilla española, which then cooled a bit while we ran to the flower mart.
I used a combo of these recipes (here and here), keeping it simple, but did make a little pimenton sauce to have on the side. It was the perfect little lunch with melon y jamon and {a wee bit early} pan con tomate.
This meal will definitely be in rotation all summer long – for breakfast, lunch and dinner, I’m afraid!
