Rock and Rolls purple rain – Rouleaux aux blettes et chèvre, sauce aux tomates anciennes I consider those to be Mediterranean tapas, actually tapas don’t have to be Spanish, or do they? …a small bite can be a tapas in my opinion.  I am not too familiar with Spanish traditions but it seems like [...]
