Book excerpt: Tapas, or little snacks, may have originated in Spain, but the custom of lingering over three or four delectable mouthfuls - empanadillas, perhaps, or chilli olives, say - with a glass of wine or two has been happily embraced in countries all around the world. With more than 60 recipes to choose from, inspired by Spanish cuisine and many others, this handsome little book of tempting goodies will keep the tradition alive and well. Choose a few, or make a meal of them.
