The Famous Dishes of World-Renowned Spanish Cuisine
Korean, Japanese and Chinese food may be all the rage with young Vietnamese right now, but today your jaw will drop when you discover the irresistible dishes of the famous land of Despacito.
PIMIENTOS DE PADRON
This famous tapa is made with green Padrón peppers, which come from the region of Galicia. What makes it special is that some peppers are hot and some aren't, so every bite is a surprise.
PAELLA VALENCIANA
This is Spain's most famous mixed rice dish. It originated in the Valencia region and comes in many versions, made with chicken, seafood or rabbit.
FIDEUA
This Spanish noodle dish uses noodles that look much like Vietnamese rice vermicelli. It is cooked with seafood such as shrimp, clams and squid... and a variety of seasonings, so its flavor is quite complex – too complex to take in all at once.
PATATAS BRAVAS
The name, which translates as "brave potatoes", delights visitors, and this is considered the most popular tapa in the country.
The distinctive orange sauce spooned over every piece of potato gives it a very special flavor found only in this part of the world.
GAZPACHO
This tomato soup comes from Andalusia. It is more popular than ever during the hot summer months, because it is only good served cold.
JAMON
Cured ham: whole pork legs salted and dried using a traditional method. In most of the country, the usual meat is from white pigs.
ALBONDIGAS
Balls of minced meat covered in a tomato sauce made by skilled cooks.
BACALAO
The cod used for bacalao is caught far offshore, so it has to be salted to preserve it on the way back to land. Before cooking, chefs soak the fish in water for about 1 day to draw out the salt.
LECHE FRITA
This dessert is quite new to Vietnamese people. You could call it fried milk – it sounds odd that milk can be fried until golden, but the dish is made of flour, egg yolks, milk and fresh cream. Everything is mixed together, then coated in breadcrumbs and fried until golden.
TORTILLA
Known in Vietnamese simply as potato omelette, this dish is made mainly of thinly sliced potatoes stirred into beaten eggs with a few signature seasonings and fried until golden.
CROQUETAS
This snack is made from a thick béchamel mixed with jamón or salt cod and the necessary seasonings, shaped into balls, rolled in breadcrumbs and deep-fried until crispy.
Bite in and you get the creamy béchamel filling they are known for.
CHURROS
If you love street food, this one's for you. Vietnam has banh quay (fried dough sticks); Spain has churros.
Most people eat them with hot chocolate sauce, which adds a lovely aroma and keeps them from feeling too heavy.
