I know the US celebrates Labor Day in September but International Workers Day is 01 May. I bake for a Dutch chef who organises pop-ups in various locations around this part of North Wales. His menus move from country to country every week which keeps me on my toes and this week he's doing Cuba.

 

The main item was Black Bean, Jalapenos and Coriander (Cilantro) Bread but I couldn't resist doing the Chipotle and Cumin "Cigars" as an extra.

Reality check. One day we're celebrating International Workers Day, next day we have another royal mouth to feed. Anyway I thought I should make the best of it and turned out a couronne (a crown) - what you might call a pain ironique.

I'll attempt a less clunky version today.
