Alpujarra information
The Alpujarra
Enjoying a meal in the Alpujarra is a pleasure for those who
love traditional cuisine. The specialities are based on the
products of the land. To mention just a few, puchero de hinojos
(fennel-flavoured stew), truchas con jamón (trouts
stuffed with cured ham), potaje de castañas (chestnut
stew), gachas (local porridge), estofado de conejo (rabbit
stew), gachas de ajo "quemao" (garlic porridge),
perdiz en escabeche (partridge in a pickled sauce) and tasty
pork products, especially cured ham from Trévelez,
which has its own certificate of origin. Of course, any meal
should be accompanied by the local wines, known as "Vinos
de la Tierra" from the Contraviesa - Alpujarra area.
