The Food and Wines of Spain (A cookbook)

My first journey to Spain introduced me to the diverse regions of the country from mountain towns and cosmopolitan cities to seaside resorts. Along the way, I experienced the savory cuisine and sampled wines as varied as the landscapes of Spain. Not soon after my return I not only had a craving but a real interest in preparing the traditional Spanish meals I enjoyed. What was frustrating was that I was unable to find traditional Spanish fare cookbooks. I found that many cookbooks convert traditional Spanish cooking into Spanish-American cuisine. However my frustration disappeared when I happened upon “The Food and Wines of Spain” by Penelope Casa.

“The Food and Wines of Spain” cookbook is unique. It is a cooking and history lesson all in one. The numerous recipes provide instructional material, as well as information to how a particular dish is prepared in the Spanish region it comes from. The added bonus with this cookbook is with a flip of few pages you can find easily the best type of fine Spanish wine to compliment and complete your meal.

If you are looking to impress friends and family with true Spanish cooking and wines “The Food and Wines of Spain” is your ticket to success.
