5. Passions of Spain: Tapas

   Tapas are a wide variety of appetizers in Spanish cuisine. They may be cold such as mixed olives and cheese, or warm like battered or baked chorizo, meatballs and potatoes. In Spain, patrons of tapas can order many different tapas and combine them to make a full meal.

   The word “tapas” is derived from the Spanish verb tapar, “to cover.” It is common to place a small plate of tapas atop your wine glass, making it convenient to stand and move about while enjoying your food. It’s a great party food and light fare designed to encourage conversation between people.

   A great Manchego, olives, Serrano Ham and Picos are essential, traditional delicacies. Create your own Passion of Spain at your next get together! Keep reading to get ideas for a tapas menu.
