Tortas de Aceite

Ines Rosales Sweet Olive Oil Tortas. What a find!

Tortas de Aciete

I had some time to kill in Hove this lunchtime, and wandered into the Bona Foodie delicatessen. These were irresistible. ‘Delicious snack. Made with extra virgin olive oil. Serve with tea, coffee or cheese’, it said. Along with: handmade in Spain since 1910.

£2.50 was duly handed over for a pack of six, and served with cheese when we got back.

So what are they like? They’re kind of thin crisp flaky pastry with a slight aniseedy background. And, yes, I can confirm they are absolutely yummy with cheese.

I’m shortly going to try the tea or coffee claim, too :-)
