Instructions

  1. Assemble banderillas by skewering your choice of pickle, onion, olive, and tuna onto toothpicks, or mix and match other listed ingredients.

  2. Use mild peppers such as banana wax or pepperoncini, as hot varieties will mask other flavors.

  3. Optionally, include a hard-boiled quail egg on each toothpick for a different touch.
