HAPPY NATIONAL EMPANADA DAY!

More from Vega Tapas this week:

Five Food Finds about Empanadas... 

• The Spanish word for bread is "pan".  "Empanar" is a verb form that means "to bread".  Emapanada is the past-participle, "breaded".

• It's basically a single-serving turnover.  It can be filled with sweet foods like fruits, sugars, and syrups, or savory foods like meats, cheeses, and oils.

• They originated in northwest Spain, in a region known as Galicia.

• Today they are most popular in Spanish-speaking countries across Europe and South America.

• Originally they were made with bread dough, but now they are made with pastries as well. 

Check our our Empanada de la Crawfish Boil -

And, for dessert don't miss our Banana Split Empanada

WE ALL SHOULD KNOW...

BELIEVE IT OR NOT...

Everyone knows that our real estate market is hot. How hot? Here is an example.
This property in Uptown New Orleans sold in 3 hours!
The inventory is low. Nice homes don't stay on the market for more than a week, and it's not unusual for those to sell at or even above the asking price.
