Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 1 1/4 cups (150g) flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder preferably aluminum-free
- 1/2 teaspoon salt fine sea salt
- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 3 egg at room temperature, large
- 1/2 cup (150g) plain whole-milk yogurt
- 3 ounces (85g) chorizo preferable spicy, skinned and finely diced
- 8 sun-dried tomatoes finely diced, halves
- 3/4 cup (100g) pistachio unsalted shelled
- 1/4 cup (15g) parsley flat-leaf, chopped
- butter for greasing the pan
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F (180C).
- Butter a 9-inch (23cm) loaf pan and sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of the sesame seeds, tilting the pan to distribute them.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and chile powder.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the eggs and yogurt. Sift the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, stirring until barely incorporated. Don’t overmix.
- Gently fold in the chorizo, tomatoes, pistachios, and parsley. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and sprinkle with the remaining sesame seeds.
- Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until the cake just feels set in the center. Let cool for 15 minutes, then tilt it out of the pan onto a cooling rack.
Notes
- Serving and storage: Once cool, cut the cake into thin slices and serve as is. Leftover cake should be wrapped snugly in plastic and will keep up to five days at room temperature. I often cut savory cakes in half and freeze part to have on hand for emergency cocktail parties. Note: Chorizo is available in well-stocked supermarkets and food stores. It’s also available from La Tienda, although any fully-cured, spicy sausage available locally should work.
