Description
The AxarquÃa is a small, remarkable corner of Andalusia in Spain. It has witnessed some of the most culturally cataclysmic events of the last 40,000 years of European history, such as the arrival of the first modern human beings in Europe, the invasion of the Phoenicians, Byzantines, Romans, Visigoths, Arabs and most recently, the Christians.It is a bountiful area with fertile soils and a good climate. However, it is not always an easy place. In just a few years the climate of the area can fluctuate from abundance to drought. The geography of the region makes access very difficult; to this day many of its villages are remote, often inaccessible.These extraordinary historical, climatic and geographical conditions have made the AxarquÃa an area of great diversity. One of the most interesting facets of the region is its cuisine. It is full of Roman, Arab, Jewish and Christian culinary traditions, many of which are obvious in the 200 plus recipes contained in this book. To give a better insight into the culinary origins in this collection of recipes we have divided the book into the following chapters: GENERAL: - The geography, landscape and climate of the AxarquÃa- A short History of the AxarquÃa and gastronomic influences- The Agriculture of the AxarquÃa- Traditional ingredients- Village by Village: A short Gastronomic tour of the AxarquÃaRECIPES: - Starters, Salads and Gazpachos- Soups of the AxarquÃa- Main Dishes of the AxarquÃa- Goat's Meat dishes- Lamb dishes- Rabbit dishes- Pork dishes- Poultry dishes- Stews and Fricassees- Casseroles- Fish Dishes- Sweets and Confectionary- Breads and Tortillas- Wines and other alcoholic drinks of the AxarquÃa- Tapas of the AxarquÃa- Timetable of Meals in AndalucÃa- Traditional Breakfast in the AxarquÃa- Merienda- Table, serving and restaurant etiquette in AndalusiaThe cuisine of the AxarquÃa is a delicious and exciting voyage of exploration in Spanish taste, country life and European history.
