I agree... those Seville olive oil crackers with anise and a light dusting of sugar are amazing. Makes me want to go there to learn how to make them.

They're like a crispbread but more luscious; a tortilla but crunchier; a cookie but not as sugary. Whatever they are, Ines Rosales Olive Oil Tortas, made by hand according to a century-old recipe in Seville, Spain, are heavenly. I'm addicted to the sesame–sea salt variety and the sweet anise kind, which I eat with slices of Serrano ham. —Michael Klashman, New York, New York

The gourmet store I work for sells these and I bought a pack of the swett ones on a whim when we first received them. There is nothing else like them, you have to taste them to understand! Lucky me gets 20% off at the store! I ate the whole pack without anything to go with them at all! The other varieties are also delicious.
Sorry I did mean the SWEET ones!
I agree these are addictive. I am not even a fan of anise, but these may make me a convert
Oh my goodness, I've just discovered these. I first had them at a local coffee shop, then found some at my grocery store this weekend. I can't wait to try to make them myself. Does anyone have a recipe to recommend?
