So, while I was already familiar with Tapas, when they were named our theme for this week's edition of Sunday Supper, I decided to dive a little deeper and find its roots.
Sure, I knew that tapas stemmed from the word tapar, meaning "to cover". I knew that they were "small plates" and that they are normally associated with Spain. I knew that they were normally served as a bite or two alongside alcohol. I knew that just thinking about them makes me long for a glass of sherry in my hand, just so that I could eat some serrano ham along with it. And I don't even drink plain sherry.
