As a lover of all things Spanish, I begged my friend Pia for her recipe of the most delicious bread. As bread is served with every meal in Spain, I returned home desperate for more. Anyway, Pia gave me her recipe & it's a very good likeness (I think her olive oil is far superior than the ones available here in the UK). The bread is great for any meal, my favourite being breakfast, served with butter, jam, orange marmalade or with ham & or cheese. She also states that it's essential to pour yourself a glass of red rioja & put on a cd of the Gypsy Kings.....to get you in the mood!
