Since I came back from Barcelona I could not stop thinking about when to make the delicious Cake with cañarejal cheese, black truffle and house breadsticks. The perfect opportunity came when two close friends of mine came to visit from Perú. I decided to turn my house into a ‘Tapas Bar” for one night along with good wine and the best company.

So thanks to that whim, a couple of days with appetizer ideas and a fun night arose. Of course that being the Cake the lead singer, she took all the applauses. The breadsticks, of course, where home-made and with sourdough. The cheese and truffle came from a delicatessen store that takes great care of products and clients: El Teso. So today I’ll tell you about these spectacular corn breadsticks with onions (recipe from Dan Lepard’s book) that I did with red onions and that not only go well with this suggested and maginificent appetizer but with plenty of more ideas.

The appetizer I made: Cake with cañarejal cheese, black truffle and house breadsticks.

You can roll some ham on it, with some cream cheese, smoked salmon and mayo, with nothing, with provolone cheese… let your imagination fly!
