The Lure of Santiago de Compostela By : stephenmorgan Spain, is a country that as has been mentioned on numerous occasions before is more than perhaps the sum of its constituent parts.

Grilled Pilgrim Scallops By : stephenmorgan It is quite common when you take a look at the native cuisine from any one particular country to come up with a particular theme or common approach / name for the catering or cuisine from that country. Such as Chinese Food, Thai Food etc but to be honest it could be argued that with regards to Spain there is no such thing as “Spanish” food as with the make up and historical heritage of Spain it is not quite that simple. The reason for this is that Spain is an amalgam of its constituent parts that is to say it could be described as a political construct which is made up of disparate groups with their own languages, cultures, cuisines etc. These autonomous regions have been slowly amalgamated through a number of different processes throughout history but have all kept their own distinctive features. Chilled Asparagus Soup with a Warm Poached Egg By : Scott James Somehow when you do a little research on the cuisine of an individual country it is quite easy to come up almost with a common theme, a common name for the food for that country. Such as French food, Italian food etc but with the regards to Spanish food or more accurately described as recipes that originate from the country of Spain it could be argued that it is not quite that simple. The Political and historical make up of Spain with the unification of its particular regions and collective cultural identities make it perfectly reasonable and logical to argue that there is no such thing really as overall Spanish cooking.

The reason for this is that you could quite easily argue that technically there is no such thing as Spanish food and the reason being for this is that Spain is an amalgam of its constituent parts that is to say it could be described as a political construct which is made up of disparate groups with their own languages, cultures, cuisines etc. These autonomous regions have been slowly amalgamated through a number of different processes throughout history but have all kept their own distinctive features. Galician Broth – A Taste of Rural Galician Cuisine By : stephenmorgan Quite often when you research information into the various cultures and cuisines that make up countries it is quite possible to find a common theme common name for the food of that country.

The reason for this is that you could quite easily argue that technically there is no such thing as Spanish food and the reason being for this is that Spain is an amalgam of its constituent parts that is to say it could be described as a political construct which is made up of disparate groups with their own languages, cultures, cuisines etc. The various autonomous regions that comprise Spain have been slowly pulled together through a variety of different processes some by force, some by choice but they all have one thing in common and that is they have kept their own individual features.

Octopus “a la mugardesa” - a Seafood Dish from Galicia By : stephenmorgan A huge octopus, a giant squid. Guaranteed to put the fear of god into most deep sea travellers and fishermen (and those of us who aren’t also), but funnily enough they are also quite a delicacy when prepared properly and that is the purpose of this article about a dish from North Western Spain or more specifically Galicia. It is usually possible whenever you stopped to research information about different countries cultures queasiness and general background for you to come off with a common theme or a common name that would relate to that country's cuisine. Such as English food, German food but when you consider Spanish food or if you wish to be a bit more accurate about how you look at it, food and recipes that originate from Spain there is a very convincing argument that would say it's not that simple. Sardines Roasted with Boiled Potatoes a taste of Galicia By : Scott James Somehow when you do a little research on the cuisine of an individual country it is quite easy to come up almost with a common theme, a common name for the food for that country. Such as English food, German food but when you consider Spanish food or if you wish to be a bit more accurate about how you look at it, food and recipes that originate from Spain there is a very convincing argument that would say it's not that simple. The relatively recent unification of Spain as a single political entity is really the main driving force that lies behind this theory as the country is an amalgamation of the various autonomous regions that lie within it. These autonomous regions have been slowly amalgamated through a number of different processes throughout history but have all kept their own distinctive features. Galician Flat Pies with a Pork Filling By : Scott James Somehow when you do a little research on the cuisine of an individual country it is quite easy to come up almost with a common theme, a common name for the food for that country.

Beef Recipes - Galician Beef Sirloin By : stephenmorgan Today we are going to look at a very traditional dish from the North Western corner of Spain, Galician Beef Sirloin. Most authorities tend to take the view point that as life in Galicia is heavily influenced by the sea that the only recipes worth taking note about are the seafood dishes so this recipe is at least part of the argument that proves that to be just yet another travel myth. Galician Flat Pies By : Scott James Today we are going to look at a very traditional dish from the North Western corner of Spain, the Galician Flat Pie or the Empanada. The thing about an empanada is that once you have got the concept just right and you've managed to get the texture and the flour correct for the crust then you can add almost anything to it that you like. It really is one of the most versatile things going and is as it was originally designed, a meal in itself. Fried Milk Fritters for Galicia By : stephenmorgan Spanish food has always been heavily regionally based and the reason for this lies with the history of the country and the make up of the regions themselves. This has lead on several occasions to the belief that there is no such thing technically as pure “Spanish cooking”. The reason for this is that you could quite easily argue that technically there is no such thing as Spanish food and the reason being for this is that Spain is an amalgam of its constituent parts that is to say it could be described as a political construct which is made up of disparate groups with their own languages, cultures, cuisines etc. These autonomous regions have been slowly amalgamated through a number of different processes throughout history but have all kept their own distinctive features.
