Three Guys From Miami: Cuban and Spanish Food Recipes
Appetizers

How to Make the Best Cuban and Spanish Appetizers

Glenn Lindgren: You might be thinking, “Cuban food is served in such large portions, are appetizers really necessary?”

Jorge Castillo: We have personally taken on the task of exploring this question. We’re still studying the issue carefully.

Glenn Lindgren: With the complexity of this issue, we foresee years of additional study and experimentation.

Jorge Castillo: Yes, we must suffer through years of cooking and eating Cuban appetizers in our quest.

Raúl Musibay: OK, OK -- the short answer is yes, of course, we need Cuban appetizers! When they taste this good, how can you resist?
