Gazpacho manchego. Game or poultry, and mountain snails, put on a cake of unleavened bread. |
Stuffing balls (pelotas de relleno). Lean chopped, bread crumbs, pine nuts, parsley and spices, cooked in a stew. |
Fried goat cheese with tomato sauce (queso frito con tomate). Lean chopped, bread crumbs, pine nuts, parsley and spices, cooked in a stew. |
Potato pie (empanadas de patata). |
Snails in sauce (caracoles) |
Fried cakes (tortas fritas). Fried cakes with sugar, salt, honey or anchovies. |
Little books (libricos). Wafer with honey. |
Blessed bread (pan bendito). |
