procedure
  • Remove the pits from the dates by slicing into one side of the date, so that the date resembles a clam shell.
  • Put 1 half teaspoon of Valdeón cheese and one Marcona Almond inside each of the dates, then close each back together.
  • Wrap each date with one strip of bacon.
  • Put three dates together and skewer them across the dates.

Service

  • Deep fry one skewer of dates at 375ºF until brown in color.
  • The bacon should be cooked through, but be careful not to burn it.
  • Set on a small plate lined with a small piece of Boqueria-branded parchment (cut the paper to fit your plate).
