La Tienda

As Summer approaches, I have begun to plan some parties.  One party I have been anxious to throw is an Argentinian cookout. I recently discovered this company that carries all things Spanish. They sell a lot of things I can use at my party.

 The Blog Tech loves seafood like no one I have ever known.  Even as a small child he would eat any kind of seafood placed in front of him.  These canned products are his favorites.  There are restaurants that have these on their menu.  When you order them, they serve them in these tins.

 He did not get this taste from me.  I am very picky when it comes to seafood.  I rarely eat it unless I prepare it myself.

 I've started ordering some of the different sausages and meats that they sell. I will make a big charcuterie platter to serve the different kinds of ham.

 I will grill the sausages and serve them with freshly made chimichurri sauce and grilled vegetables. I'm still planning it all out.

 La Tienda also sells some interesting confections which will go on my dessert table.

 Milk chocolate covered figs filled with salted caramel.

 And white chocolate covered figs.....

stuffed with a strawberry flavored ganache. This will be fun.
