Tenerife Gastronomy
The cuisine of the Canary Islands combines traditional
Spanish recipes with African and Latin American influences, resulting
in an incedible variety of foods. A very simple and well-known
recipe is Papas Arrugadas, potatoes boilt in salt-water without
peeling them and served with Mojo, a hot sauce of oil, garlic,
chili-peppers and paprika. Mojo is the most famous of many Canary
sauces. If you like fish, you will feel like you're in paradise
on these islands. Among the most typical regional recipes are
Caldereta and Sancocho Canario, salted fish in a Mojo sauce. Exotic
fruits are the base of several excellent desserts and sweets.
Platanos Fritos, fried bananas, are a desert in great demand.
