Spanish cooking invites you to share: a few small plates, bread for the sauce and a dish brought to the table in its pan. Peppers, tomatoes, garlic and olive oil give plenty of flavour.
Discover rice dishes, Albóndigas, Patatas Bravas and other Spanish-inspired ideas. Coasts, cities and inland areas have different cuisines. Each dish therefore provides its own instructions, rather than a single recipe for an entire country.
The collection combines classic references and personal variations. Origin labels follow the existing cookbook and do not claim an exclusive origin.

A little cooking know-how
Three tips to get you started. Each recipe gives its precise quantities, cooking times and variations.
Sweet, hot and smoked paprika taste very different. Use the type specified in the recipe.
Rice variety, liquid and pan size need to work together. Rice-dish quantities cannot be transferred arbitrarily.
Ripeness and acidity vary. Finish seasoning a sauce after reducing it.
