Since we are quickly getting closer that time of the year...
I was wondering what you favourite camino recipe (s) would be?
This could be something from the Spanish camino or some other camino in another country like France, Italy, etc.
It could be something you had or something you made while doing the camino - something you believe reflects the spirit, culture and location of where you were at that time?
Furthermore, have you tried to duplicate the same recipe at home and if so how did it go?
Hi Jirit -
Caldo Gallego (Galician soup) has always been a winner for me. I enjoyed many bowls of it while on Camino last year - all those 'nuts and bolts' in the soup! Since then I've made it countless times at home, adding MORE 'nuts and bolts' so it was more of a casserole than a soup - so delicious!
And to finish, well, who can go past the dessert 'star' of the Menu del Dia ... Flan!
Cheers - Jenny
I'm thinking of doing Arroz con Leche this weekend.
I had that on the Salvador, in the bar at Puerto de Pajares (that is a special place which means much to me)
I thought that was the best Arroz con Leche I ever had.
I'm not sure how to achieve that special anise taste? I don't know if they used anisette liqour or if they used real anise.
Will have to do some tests and report back later.
A plate full of stadwurst mit musik with a large glass of radler to wash it down......the essence of Nuremburg and the start of my Jakobsweg.....yum

Hi, Jenny, I see jirit asked the same question I was going to ask you. What greens do you use? I love Caldo Gallego (or its Portuguese equivalent, Caldo Verde) and I think the closest greens are collard greens and turnip greens. Swiss chard and kale work but seem different to me. Would you care to share your recipe? I will hunt for mine later today as well. Buen camino, Laurie
Hi Laurie - I'd love to try your recipe for Caldo Gallego, plus any other Camino-inspired recipes you like to cook. I have a dessert I've put a 'Camino' spin on ... I call it 'Camino Crumble' - it's basically Gary Rhodes' (British chef and food writer) nutty apple crumble but I also make a hot sauce to go with it which consists of Pedro Ximenez sherry, lemon juice and dark brown sugar, which is served in a jug at the table along with the crumble and a bowl of whipped cream - it's really good!Hi, Jenny, I see jirit asked the same question I was going to ask you.

Hola,Hi Susanna
Sounds just the kind of thing for this time of year! Lets us know how it works out!
just two tablespoons of Quzo eh?
I wonder if you could use Galician firewater instead?
Yes. Wasn't sure how alcohol and milk would turn out when mixed. And it was a small pot.
What is Galician firewater? That sounds interesting.
