What people eat in Cantabria when they eat well.
White beans with cabbage and cured meats; the dish the northern weather calls for.
Hand-filleted one by one; the most serious tins on the Cantabrian coast.
Butter, sugar and egg from the Pas valleys; for breakfast or a snack.
Moist fresh-milk dessert, baked slowly.
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 Valdeolea's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
