Fun and Sun at Blim

A beautifully warm sunny day was perfect for hanging out and shopping at the Blim Community Market at the Cambrian Hall last Sunday.

Especially popular was Torta Patate, a rich and comforting olive oil pastry tart filled with potato, ricotta & parmesan cheese, chives and nutmeg.

Among those many people who don't want wheat or gluten, the Torta di Ceci was an exciting new option. Torta di Ceci has its roots in Livorno on the north-west coast of Italy. It's a blend of chickpea flour, extra virgin olive oil, water and salt baked to a luscious cakiness. The Livornese traditionally dress the torta with finely chopped onion or rosemary. I chose to top it with a pungent salsa verde, heavy on rosemary.

Thanks to everyone who enjoyed the food for your kind compliments.

See you there next month.
