{"product_id":"andres-gavino-sweet-olive-oil-torta-biscuits","title":"Andres Gavino Sweet Olive Oil Torta Biscuits, 180g","description":"\u003cp\u003eAndrés Gaviño Sweet Olive Oil Tortas are thin, flaky biscuits from Seville, made by hand with extra virgin olive oil, sugar, aniseed and sesame seeds. This is the classic torta de aceite, the original version of a Sevillian speciality that has been baked for centuries and was once sold as a portable snack for stagecoach travellers. Each torta is pressed out thin, scattered with sugar and baked until golden and crisp, then wrapped in its own sheet of waxed paper. The flavour is gently sweet, with a fruity warmth from the olive oil, a lovely hint of aniseed and a little nuttiness from the toasted sesame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey’re the perfect partner for a cup of coffee. Do as the Sevillanos do and break a piece into a morning café con leche, or dunk one into a mug of thick hot chocolate. The aniseed works beautifully with fruit and cheese - try them with fresh figs and a soft goat’s cheese, or with a wedge of Manchego and some quince paste. After dinner, serve them with a glass of chilled fino or amontillado sherry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy we love it:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe original Sevillian torta de aceite, made by hand to a traditional recipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade with extra virgin olive oil instead of butter, for a light, flaky texture\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAniseed and toasted sesame give a warm, gently spiced flavour that’s very different from an ordinary sweet biscuit\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach torta individually wrapped in waxed paper, so they stay crisp and are easy to take out and about\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA short ingredients list, with no preservatives or colourings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to use:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor a Spanish breakfast, serve 1 torta per person with a café con leche or a mug of thick hot chocolate for dunking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor a cheeseboard, serve whole tortas with 150g of Manchego, 4 fresh figs and a spoonful of quince paste\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor a quick dessert, crumble 2 tortas over a bowl of Greek yoghurt or poached pears and drizzle with honey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMore information:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade by Fábrica de Tortas Andrés Gaviño, bakers of traditional Sevillian olive oil tortas\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180g pack with 6 individually wrapped tortas\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for vegetarians and vegans; not gluten-free\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
