La préparation

Étape par étape

  1. 1

    Gather all your ingredients and arrange them neatly on a clean work surface to facilitate easy assembly.

    Environ 1 min

    Note du chef : Having all components ready before you start threading will make the process much smoother and quicker.

  2. 2

    Take one small wooden skewer and carefully thread one manzanilla olive onto its tip.

    Environ 1 min

    Note du chef : Ensure the olive is firm enough to hold its shape on the skewer without splitting.

  3. 3

    Next, gently thread one guindilla pepper onto the skewer, folding it in half if it is particularly long, so it sits snugly against the olive.

    Environ 1 min

    Note du chef : Guindilla peppers are typically mild with a slight tang; adjust the quantity if you prefer more or less heat.

  4. 4

    Follow with one anchovy fillet, carefully folding it in half lengthwise before threading it onto the skewer.

    Environ 1 min

    Note du chef : Use high-quality anchovy fillets packed in olive oil for the best flavor. Pat them lightly with a paper towel if they are excessively oily.

  5. 5

    Add another guindilla pepper to the skewer, folding it as before to create a balanced visual and flavor profile.

    Environ 1 min

    Note du chef : The order of ingredients is traditional for a Gilda, ensuring a harmonious blend of tastes with each bite.

  6. 6

    Finish the pintxo by threading a second manzanilla olive onto the skewer, securing all the components.

    Environ 1 min

    Note du chef : The olives provide a briny counterpoint to the anchovy and pepper, completing the classic Gilda flavor.

  7. 7

    Repeat this threading process to assemble the remaining 11 pintxos, ensuring each one has the same sequence of ingredients.

    Environ 5 min

    Note du chef : You can prepare these just before serving for optimal freshness, or up to an hour in advance and keep them chilled.

  8. 8

    Arrange the finished Gilda pintxos on a serving platter and present them immediately.

    Environ 1 min

    Note du chef : For an extra touch, drizzle a tiny bit of the anchovy's olive oil over the assembled pintxos just before serving.
