Hey all,
After many years living in Spain with my first husband when our children -now adults were little - I have made more Spanish Omelettes ( Tortillas) than I care to remember. Traditional potato and onion usually, but also with chorizo, peppers, spinach, and jamón.
Over the last few years along with other Spanish ‘tapas’ I have noticed these are sold vacuum packed in Tesco , Waitrose-etc around 5/6 inches across. While not bad at all- albeit desparately under seasoned and not made with olive oil- I have long sone been thinking about making and selling my own from home. I make a similar size at home sometimes but also 7/8 inch around 1.5 inch deep for family gatherings, and when we go to barbecues etc.
i am often being asked to make tortillas by family and someone recently joked/suggested I should get on fb /SM - and start my own selling from home thang….which has got me thinking….
I would love to hear from people who do this- I can research myself about the certificates needed for producing food at home, allergies, hygiene etc, but it would great to hear about how you started, pricing, sourcing, promoting, and how much time you devote to it. Are you making any money , what was uptake like initially , hurdles, successes etc
I work full time, this would be a side line obviously, evenings, weekends etc.
