GALICIA
A misty region with strong winds and overcast weather makes for a kitchen that provides warming food like soups.
Because
fishing is such an important industry, it stands to reason that fish
will appear on the menu with great regularity – octopus in huge pots
can be found at many festivals and is a favourite snack.
For the rest; mussels,
oysters, a huge variety of scallops and the inevitable sardine provides
sufficient protein and omega 3 oils for a healthy diet.
Galician
beef is popular throughout Spain and dairy products are plentiful.
Because this is the land of witches and druids, it’s to be expected
that there are many fire drinks to ward off evil spirits (or the cold).
