Cooking in Barcelona!

Nibbler went to the Iberia Peninsula for two weeks and had a very good time indeed. Got back yesterday afternoon, and since Jetlag is Queen, we will start posting food memories here (the fabulous art and other memories go to the other blog).

On the last day in Barcelona, we did what all of us had been looking forward to throughout - a Spanish cooking class! It was conducted by Cookandtaste which we read about in the BT. For 50 Euros each, we learnt to cook a four-course meal and of course had the meal for lunch. It was an excellent experience all round.

This was our chef instructor, Paul, who was quite hilarious in a deadpan way.
















This was the menu:

Chupito de Sopa de Tomate Al Aroma de Idiazabal de Peio Garcia Amiano (Gazpacho with a twist!)

Tortilla de Patatas y pan con Tomate (aka a very thick omelette)

Paella de Marisco (you cook this, you can cook anything, says Paul)

Crema Catalan (like Creme Brulee)

The cooking school has just emailed the recipes, yay, which are now posted for
future reference. :)
