Malaga gastronomy is based on a
simple elaboration, quality
products, wisdom and good taste
to prepare dishes. Granted, there
is a wide offer of restaurants that
offer menus from all along the
world. Let's focus on those recipes
that with little modifications have
passed generation after generation
and table after table.
Thsnks to the sun and its friend
the warm that are always present
in Malaga province peopie prefers
cool dishes to face the summer
that last almost the whole year.
For this reason, gazpacho that
means miscellanea is the starter
of a great meai. It was born from
the idea of farmers to use wisely
all the products to make something
nourishing and tasty at the same
time.
Gazpacho is a cool tomato soup
with oiive oil, pepper, cucumber.
A similar dish is ajoblanco, in this
dish tomato is changed by smashed
almonds, grapes or melon. Both
are served chilled.
Other starter similar to gazpacho
but thicker is porra antequerana.
This dish is decorated with sliced
boiled egg, serrano ham and tuna.
During the short winter
gazpachuelo will be the substitute
of those dishes.
Once we star to eat the main course
have to follow. Migas is a good
option. This dish is made with
bread, olive oil and garlic, morcilia,
sausage, fried eggs and pepper.
This dish was born in the valley of
the river Guadahorce. Citrus fruits
are the garnish of perota soups
(olive oil, tomato and pepper),
though some people prefer it with
onion, olives, melon or water
melon. There is no accounting for
tastes.
Good taste of the dishes such as
kid with gariic, rabbit in pot, bull's
tail cooked the way of Ronda.
For those who prefer fish to meat,
Costa del Sol is the best restaurant,
It is the temple of recipes fished
in the sea. Fried fish, espetos,
boiled or grilled prawns, anchovies
in vinegar and other fried fish.
For desserts we have in the menu
specialities such as angelorum,
yolks and almond cake. Some
recipes iike the one of bienmesabe
is kept in a church.
Some other lovely desserts are
prepared by cloistered nuns of
beien and descalzas with passion
and care. Authentic delicacies
served with humbleness through a
small window open for a few
seconds in the main gate.
To sum up, Malaga gastronomy is
a delicious temptation difficult to
avoid.
Enjoy your meal. |
