The local larder

What people eat in Castilla-La Mancha when they eat well.

Queso manchego

From Manchega sheep, with PDO; semi-cured or cured, never missing from the table.

Pisto manchego

Garden tomato, pepper and courgette, with a fried egg if you let yourself be spoiled.

Azafrán de La Mancha

The world's most expensive spice is harvested here by hand, flower by flower, every October.

Migas de pastor

Day-old bread, garlic and paprika; waste-not cooking that tastes of the countryside.

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 Villanueva de la Jara's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
