EATING LIKE THE SPANISH



Bored of cooking every day the same meals, the same

recipes, and want to try something different and exotic?



You can choose any culture, any country you want and you

will find traditional food for each and every

one of them. But there is something different about the

way the Spanish cook, they just make food enjoying it and

this is what matters and offers such tasty results.



First of all you have to know Spanish people like to eat

a lot of eggs. But they never, or almost never, eat boiled

eggs like we do (cigar makers use to eat Fried eggs on rice for lunch).

The traditional egg preparation method is

to scramble them and fry them, obtaining a delicious omlette

with potatoes and lots of onions added in the frying pan. The

Spanish tortilla, as it is called is an exceptional and

nutritional way to feed your family for lunch.



Another wonderful dish is the paella. The paella means that

you will pretty much throw in the frying pan everything you have

in your fridge. Everything that goes with each other, of course.

The base for the paella is usually obtained out of boiled chicken

wings of legs and to it we will add vegetables,rice, fish, and several

other seafoods.

It is important that we fry everything together in olive oil for a better

taste. We can even add fruits in the pan and after everything is done,

just a minute before turning off the fire, we pour in the pan an assorted

natural juice or liqueur or wine, whatever we want as long as we think we

will like it. And the result will be an absolutely extraordinary dish made

to fit our every taste and desire. Paella is my favorite main meal dish.



Spanish deserts are often a dream, but they can be rather difficult to

prepare and they usually contain lots of calories. A few of the simple ones

are Natilla (Spanish Custard), Flan,Queen of Puddings,Key Lime Pie

(the Real one).

Spanish cooking in generally is for people that really have time to spend in

the kitchen and enjoy doing it. Most Spanish dishes take a log time to

complete and a regular Spanish meal can require up to 3 or even 4 dishes to

serve. Often they will serve Sangria with the main meal.



If you are willing to try but don't really have that much time on your hands

then you can just go to a Spanish restaurant near you and see for a change

how Spanish people eat. But if you experience weight problems you must be

careful on how much you eat, Spanish food can be addictive and it contains

many calories to give you lots of benefic energy.



If your choice is Paella call the Spanish restaurant in advance as this is

not a one person dish. You will find that Paella is a heart and soul warming

dish. Great time to take friends and family out. The Chef normally only

prepares it when it is ordered. No left overs.
