The local larder

What people eat in País Vasco when they eat well.

Pintxos

The bar as the menu: small bites ordered standing up and paid for at the end.

Txuleta a la brasa

Aged T-bone steak, rare and with coarse salt; best at a grill house.

Bacalao al pil-pil

Just cod, oil and garlic, hand-emulsified into a sauce.

Txakoli

Young, lively white, poured from a height to whet the appetite.

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.

We haven't confirmed Asparrena's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
