Spanish

The exciting flavors of Spain inspire these intriguing recipes. Great tapas dishes, Gambas al Ajillo and Baby Octopus in Tomato Sauce, will pique your appetite. Pair them with a glass of wine or Sangria. The global dessert sensation, Burnt Basque Cheesecake, makes a marvelous ending to any meal. It’s a rule-defying culinary magic trick, but the results of this simple preparation will change the way you think about cheesecake.

  • Burnt Basque Cheesecake is a ridiculously simple dessert that comes together from a handful of ingredients. Matcha (green tea powder) gives this one its vibrant green hue and fragrant flavor.
