They are skinned, boned and trimmed before being cured in barrels of salt in the traditional way. You will not find better quality taste or texture than this.Parisbreakfastshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558314043814894010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-77738622816939587192015-06-15T21:40:32.225-04:002015-06-15T21:40:32.225-04:00White gazpacho is a classic dish from Spain, earli...White gazpacho is a classic dish from Spain, earlier versions dating back to when the Moors controlled Andalucia.

The great mountainous nature of the Basque Country has led to a difference between coastal cuisine dominated by fish and seafood, and inland cuisine with fresh and cured meats, many vegetables and legumes, and freshwater fish and salt cod. The French and Spanish influence is strong also, with a noted difference between the cuisine of either side of the modern border; even iconic Basque dishes and products, such as txakoli from the South, orGâteau Basque (Biskotx) and Jambon de Bayonne from the North, are rarely seen on the other side.<br /><br />Basques have also been quick to absorb new ingredients and techniques from new settlers and from their own trade and exploration links. Jews expelled from Spain and Portugal created a chocolate and confectionery industry in Bayonne still well-known today, and part of a wider confectionery and pastry tradition across the Basque Country. Basques embraced thepotato and the capsicum, used in hams, sausages and recipes, with pepper festivals around the area, notably Ezpeleta andPuente la Reina.<br /><br />Olive oil is more commonly used than butter in Basque cooking.<br /><br />Thank you Wikipedia!Parisbreakfastshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558314043814894010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-79291831293417382452015-06-15T05:16:36.779-04:002015-06-15T05:16:36.779-04:00Looks like so much fun!
