The local larder

What people eat in Cataluña when they eat well.

Pa amb tomàquet

Bread, ripe tomato, oil and salt: the base of any Catalan table.

Calçots con romesco

Spring onions charred over flames, January to March, bib on.

Butifarra amb mongetes

Fresh sausage grilled with sautéed beans; hearty and honest.

Crema catalana

Egg-yolk custard with a sugar crust caramelised on the spot.

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 Santa Maria de Besora's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
