Technical Point !! Tapas actually translates to 'covers'. It originated by some bright spark deciding that a good way of keeping the flies out of the sherry was to cover the copa (cup) with a thin slice of bread. Someone else decide it was a waste to throw the bread away afterwards and put toppings on the bread to be eaten after the drink. And so - TAPAS !! -
Yes, yes, etymologically "tapas" is derived from the Spanish verb tapar, "to cover". But that is not what the term means at this time, as anyone who has been in a tapas bar even once will find themselves surrounded by little dishes. So let's talk about this little dish. It is delicious. I made just one egg, as I just wanted a bit of a snack to go with my soup. And, as it happens, I did spread a bit of the sauce on a crusty, toasted piece of bread, layered with the egg slices, and then drizzled more sauce. Very tasty. I made my sauce in a coffee mug just a bit larger than the circumference of my immersion blender, as the amount is just too small for my food processor. I think this sauce would be lovely on cold poached chicken or salmon, too.
