Now that the summer and the heat are coming, making empanadas is a fabulous idea. We can prepare it in the afternoon and have it ready for the night and have it as a snack. It is also a perfect plan to take it to a picnic or to the house of friends. And, well, although this year is a little more atypical and we cannot enjoy a summer vacation like the ones we were used to, we can always cook delicious things to make every moment a great moment.
Today we are going to prepare an exquisite empanada, full of flavor: wholemeal octopus and tuna empanada. Indeed, as you have read, the dough is integral, so for this we are going to use all the flour from the integral empanada. I have used spelled because it is the one I had at home, but of course, you can mix different flours, put an integral part and a normal part ... well, to your liking. It is about that we can also use and sell the products that we have at home or use what we can buy in the place where we are now.
To make the dough more flavorful, we are going to use the oil from octopus cans because that way they will enhance its flavor even more. If we need more, we can also use the oil from the tuna can.
But, if you don't feel like using the oil because you prefer it to be the extra virgin oil you have at home, no problem. You just drain the cans well and for the dough and for the sauce you add your oil. You can also put 50% -50%, that is, half the oil in the can and half your oil. The important thing is that you always respect the grams of oil indicated in the recipe.
