The local larder

What people eat in Andalucía when they eat well.

Gazpacho y salmorejo

Tomato, oil and bread, well chilled in summer; every household has its own touch.

Jamón ibérico

From the Andalusian sierras, thinly hand-carved; order the tapa with your wine.

Aceite de oliva virgen extra

A good share of the world's extra virgin olive oil is made here, and breakfast is bread with it.

Pescaíto frito

Flour, clean oil and a quick fry; a coastal custom that climbs to the sierra.

Markets and local produce

Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.

Market day: Friday, 8:00 to 13:00
