Sweet Black Olive Cake with Marscapone

Sweet Black Olive Cake with Marscapone
I want you to suspend disbelief - what olives in a cake? If you have ever been to any of our classes, you know that the Sarafino Homestyle Baked Olives are one of our favourites to use in everything from charcuterie to baked dishes. That's because they are preserved in salt and plumped in oil and seasonings and not a vinegary brine. This makes them more buttery in flavour, making them a crazy, good addition to the cake. It's crispy and chewy with an almost "chocolate-like" taste. Feel free to omit the olives and add 1/2 cup cocoa nibs keeping this a dairy-free cake. (Adapted from Food 52, Charlotte Druckman's Olive (Oil) Cake).

This is a wonderful hearty soup with Tuscan roots. It uses farro which is an ancient grain but you can also use wheatberries or spelt. This soup will absorb any extra liquid if you have leftover, so just add more liquid if you wish to reheat leftovers the next day.
