Aragon information
Gastronomy
Aragon has inherited its rich gastronomy from the different cultures
which have passed through the region over the centuries. The great
geographical diversity of this region has given rise to top quality
products which are as varied as the land's orography. The cuisine
is based on popular stews which are different depending on the
area where they are prepared. Traditional recipes are currently
being modernised but will always maintain their characteristic
simplicity and honesty. We can also find an offer of a great variety
of fruit, vegetables and pulses, including the thistle and borage
which, due to their increasing popularity, are often seen on the
menus of top restaurants, haricot beans, onions from Fuentes,
asparagus from the banks of the River Ebro and the oils from Lower
Aragon. The fruit grown in Aragon is admired throughout the rest
of mainland Spain as the peaches with D.O. from Calanda.
