Spain and its Cuisine

Spain, officially Reino de España the Kingdom of Spain is a Parliamentary Democracy and Constitutional Monarchy situated in the region of Europe that the United Nations defines as 'Southern Europe'. The original inhabitants of Spain were the Basque, Celts and the Iberians. It was subsequently colonized by the Carthaginians and later included as part of Rome after the second Punic Wars (circa 208 BCE). After the fall of Rome, Spain became part of the Germanic territories in Europe. Later it was conquered by Muslim invaders though the Chrstian leaders of the North eventually rolled-back Muslim rule until the entirety of Spain came under Christain rule in 1492. This conicided with the discovery of the New World, when Spain became Europe's dominant power. But internal and external wars eventually diminished Spain's status eventually allowing for a French invasion during the 19th century. In the early 20th century a devastating civil war led to dictatorial rule, though democracy was restored in 1978. Spain is now one of the econimic powerhouses of Europe. The officila language is Spanish (Castillian) though other languages are recognised as regional languages (these include Aranese, Basque, Catalan and Galician). Though 76% of Spaniards identify themselves as Catholic, almost 54% of these have never gone to church and it seems that Spain is becoming an increasingly secular society.

Spain is the world's eighth largest economy and the fifth largest in Europe. It is a member of the European Union, which it joined on January 1st 1986 and of NATO. Spain also maintains its special relationship with Latin America and has sought to link the Iberian peninsula with Latin America through language, commerce, history and culture.

Spain has a long and diverse culinary history, and the country as a whole has a great variety of very diverse dishes in its culinary repertoire. These reflect the differences in Spanish geography, culture, history and climate. As a whole, however, the contry's cuisine is heavily influenced by seafood, which reflects its coatal waters and the country's Medditeranean roots (from the Carthaginians to the Romans). Spain's cuisine is trly unique and only the country's relative isolation during its period of non-democratic rule have prevented this from being generally considered as one of the world's great cuisines.


The alphabetical list of recipes from Spain follows (limited to 100 recipes per page). There are 119 recipes in total:
