 Spain culture 

We have allowed us the opportunity to pursue our love of Spain and Spanish food, but more importantly it has allowed us to share our enthusiasm with all of you.

.
There is nothing more Spanish than jamón serrano. This country ham is a national treasure enjoyed in Spain by all walks of life. You find jamones wherever you look-hanging in stores, bars, and even private homes.

TAPAS

 

The tapa tradition is as important for the conversation and company as for the delicious food. Every Spaniard has his favourite tasca, as the tapas bars are often called, where he goes regularly to meet his friends or business acquaintances. Tapas can be found in even the smallest bar in a tiny village.

The word tapa, meaning cover or lid, is thought to have originally referred to the complimentary plate of appetizers that many tascas would put like a lid on one's wine glass.

Tapas can vary from simple to complex and include cheese, fish, eggs, vegetable dishes, dips, canapés, and savoury pastries. A quantity of tapas can make an excellent meal.

 

Today, the international scientific community has validated our claims through its unanimous recognition of the benefits of eating plentiful amounts of Mediterranean foods: olive oil, legumes, cereals(rice pasta and bread); fruit, vegetables and nuts; cheese honey, milk and fish. Here are some Spanish recipes.
