Americans have fallen in love with Spanish food in recent
years, and no one has done more to play matchmaker than the
award-winning chef José Andrés.
In this irresistible
companion volume to his public television show Made in
Spain, José reminds us—in the most alluring and delicious
way—that the food of his native Spain is as varied and
inventive as any of the world’s great cuisines. To prove it,
José takes us on a flavorful tour of his beloved homeland,
from Andalucía to Aragón. Along the way, he shares recipes
that reflect not just local traditions but also the heart
and soul of Spain’s distinctive cooking.
In the
Basque Country, we discover great fish dishes and the haute
cuisine of some of the finest restaurants in the world. In
Cantabria, famous for its dairy products, we find wonderful
artisanal cheeses. In Valencia, we learn why the secret to
unforgettable paella is all in the rice. And in Castilla La
Mancha, José shows us the land of the great Don Quixote,
where a magical flower produces precious saffron.
The
dishes of Made in Spain show the diversity of Spanish
cooking today as it is prepared in homes and restaurants
from north to south—from casual soups and sandwiches to
soul-warming dishes of long-simmered beans and artfully
composed salads. Many dishes showcase the fine Spanish
products that are now widely available across America. Many
more are prepared with the regular ingredients available in
any good supermarket.
With more than one hundred
simple, straightforward recipes that beautifully capture the
flavors and essence of Spanish cooking, Made in Spain
is an indispensable addition to any cookbook collection.
