Edit History

From before the holidays. Potato dumplings with Sauerkraut and crispy fried Speck.

 

 

 

Big and rich lunch in Aracena. Top notch jamon and good tomatoes.

 

A piece of Iberico loin and 3 ribs.

 

Trotters

 

Good restaurants usually have a bunch of olive oils for you to try. Spaniards eat a lot of things with the oil. Well, they have got a match.

 

Cinco Jotas is the most famous jamon producer in Jabugo. "5J" means top notch jamon. "J" stands for Jabugo.

 

Jose Vincente, the cook and owner, showed me around the kitchen and posed for me. We had a long chat after lunch, his son being our translator. He does all the cooking and is the only one in the kitchen doing everything. He asked if I liked the tomatoes. Of course I did. Said he used good tomatoes, even skinned them. He uses only good stuff. Meat, jamones, oils etc. His restaurant is well-known in Aracena, long before the tourists found out about it.

 

Proud cook and his sons.
