Vamos a España—the hard, sharp Spanish cheese Roncal goes well with (clockwise from the cheese) piquant Arbequina olives, olive oil crackers, Marcona almonds, fig-and-almond cake and (center) slivers of quince paste to spread on a cracker. For wine, try a red Rioja Crianza, such as 2000 Palacio de Otazu. Charger, Christiane Perrochon ($595, Takashimaya). |
