Toothsome paella, crisp cochinillo, refreshing sangria, and luxurious jamón—what's not to love about Spanish food?
Spanish food holds a special place in our hearts (and stomachs) for different reasons. For some, it is the food that our families would gather around every Sunday, reminiscent of childhood memories shared over plates of steaming paella. For others, it encourages a festive gathering where bowls of gambas and salpicao run endlessly out of the kitchen, and carafes of sangria never run dry. No matter the reason, we can all agree on one thing: Spanish fare is undeniably delicious.
