From Algeciras to Istanbul, there is a sea that was the cradle of the great civilizations of the ancient world and that now brings together an unparalleled culinary heritage. The diversity of the cuisines of Mediterranean cities is a reflection of their cultural riches, a living and enormous treasure that is constantly evolving and that we want to invite you to discover.
In this book you will find 80 simple recipes from across the Mediterranean, celebrating the most authentic and diverse traditional flavours, aromas, preparations and techniques of the Mediterranean to prepare at home and enjoy with family and friends. Sweet and savory dishes, vegetables, fish, meat and desserts that you can share and eat with your hands, which will take you on a journey through the Mare Nostrum that we love so much.
