apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

stuffed piquillo peppers... I could eat them every day.

Paella Yum!

I love paella.

any tapa

I've always wanted to learn more about Spanish cooking after meeting a man from the Basque region at a conference. He praised his country's healthy and delicious cuisine. And you will need this grater to garnish with fresh cheese!

Paella

paella

The tapa at a local restaurant that has a tomato sauce and cheese as a sauce with bread to dip in. Soooo, good. I think I need to learn to make that, for sure.

Or paella. Everyone loves paella.

When my fiance and I were in Spain we went to this small little restaurant that had the classic fried potatoes con aoili (mmm), fried sardines (double mmm), and spanish tortilla (ahh!). But my favorite were the little olive oil poached octopus with a very rough parsley pesto thrown over at the end. SOOO freaking good. Then again, I am never one to turn up my nose at the pepper salads and manchegos. Ah, and quince paste too! Ok, I like it all. Give my Spanish food and see me smile. :)

paella...who doesn't love paella?

I have the best receipe for enchiladas!

Paella - because its delicious AND because its the only Spanish dish that I know how to cook. Maybe this cookbook will inspire me.....

are empanadas spanish? I obviously need the education of what is spanish food and not mexican.

empanadas, yum!

Paella ... with chicken or seafood.

At the risk of being repetitive, I love paella. And any salty, savory tapas.

I love cutting.

Any type of garlicky tapas!!

Definitely Spanish tortilla

Tortilla de Patatas and always flan!

sign me up

another tortilla de patatas fan, though mine never turns out right.

An ex turned me onto a wonderful recipie for Mexican Roast Pork Shoulder in an old issue of Gourmet. I've been using it for feeding groups on special occasions ever since. Cheap and yummy!

I'm fond of paella, but the recipe I most often recreate from our local tapas place is bacon-wrapped dates!

i know a lot more about portuguese cooking than spanish, but I'm sure they eat octopus with raw garlic and hot sauce all over the iberian penninsula, and that's what I'll be eating on christmas eve. mmm.

Seafood paella does the trick for me every time.

tapas, olives, and manchego.

jamon

enchiladas! YUMMY

Mariscada rich garlicky seafoodie wonderfullness!

I second rjb: olives and manchego!

Paella is pretty good, but I think I'd be happiest with an all Spanish cheese and meats plate.. Serrano ham, a quality Chorizo, artisan Manchego, Serena, Ibores, Pata de Cabra, Leonora, and Valdeon, mixed olives, and an olive oil torta.. YUM.

Mmmm... my favorite is flan!

Romesco sauce. It's good on anything - veggies, seafood, bread, meat, potatos.

I love churros dipped in melted chocolate- yum!

love paella!!! yum!

I want to learn to make better tapas.

Without a doubt, Paella!

For me, probably garlic soup with chorizo and toasted peasant bread, but I'd never refuse ham, cheese, or olives.

a assortment of tapas, especially olives and garlicky shrimp

Paella for sure!

Flan, of course. And my own personal recipe has created many flan-lovers.

Paella of course, but I also love fried calamari & the mayo-like potato tapa plate.

chorizo - preferably palacios - in any way shape or form.

Its go to be Empanadas all different flavors

Paella

enchiladas! I can never get enough of them!

Bring on the tapas recipes!

Any tapas is a good tapas.

i don;t know much about spanish cooking, but i love to make and eat torta

Chorizo!

Do drinks count??? Spanish Sangria! :)

Gazpacho is my favorite!

Enchiladas!! Yummy comfort food.

spanish style mussels...had them at a tapas place

A simple tapa - bread with a piece of chocolate and olive oil drizzled on top, run under the broiler until the chocolate is soft and warm, with a bit of coarse sea salt sprinkled on in the end.

paella!

cuban pork and tapioca

chorizo, anything with manchego, and wine!

Oh, I love tapas plates! Almonds and olives, little tidbits of chorizo, chicken in sherry sauce, garlic mushrooms... mmm!

churros y chocalate

I'd say paella, but I've never actually had it. I love Spanish tortas, though!

just the simple tomato bread
so good

I just realized I know nothing about Spanish food. I guess that's what I get for taking German in high school.

But now I feel that must be rectified.

Tapas of all kinds, especially the very garlicky shrimp.

Lactose intolerant as I may be, soy un sucker for flan.

My favourite Spanish dish are those braised chickpeas and spinach thickened with bread. Yum!!

tortilla de patatas, of course!

tapas and watch your fingers

it looks like the grater has a finger guard - hooray for staying intact!

I love flan and need more recipes to try...

pozole

Tapas! Any kind of tapas, really, but one I've had and loved was little chorizo sausages that had been grilled. YUM.

I love paella and tamales.

chicken mole!

Oh I covet the grater. I know nothing about spanish food, but I'd love to learn. Don't believe I've ever had a Spanish empanada, but I have had Mexican, Argentinian, Chilean, Peruvian, Panamanian, and Filipino, and I can truly say I never met an empanada I didn't love.

I make a killer Spanish soup with tomatoes, chicken and loads of black olives. Yummy

Tapas.

Cheese and onion enchilada.

Everything yummy!!!

Tapas- and I want to know how to cure olives!

I love Tapas!

Gazpacho

I believe someone already mentioned my favorites, the tapas dish of fried potatoes and aioli.

mmm seafood paella, definitely..
Now I'm drooling.

Paella

Spanish tortilla!

Paella, though it's hard to find a good one in LA.

garlic shrimp with bread!

I just visited Spain for the first time this fall... and loved it! Being a vegetarian who does not eat fish or seafood the menus were a little limiting but everything that I ate was great. My favorite, go-to entree ended up being the bocadillo de tortilla. So simple but so satisfying. Another new thing that I fell in love with was the fried padron peppers. Where will I ever get these in Wisconsin?

Tapas!

I love tapas...almost any variation...fun to make and yummy to eat! & i too absolutely covet that grater....as a cheese obsessed person I could use that near daily :)

jamon and manchego

mmm Flan...

Tapas, and my current grater is awful. Yay!

Enchiladas, is one of my favorite, totillas, many others I just do not know the names. I like spanish dishes. would love to win the contest also, thanks.

My favorite Spanish dish is one that I had in Barcelona on my "luna de miel" this spring. It involved a piece of crusty bread , toasted lightly, topped with a piece of extroadinary chocolate, olive oil and sea salt. the chocolate gets melty, and the salt and olive oil come together for my favorite savory/sweet desert. like a s'more, only better! I believe it was called "pan de xocolate."

patatas con alioli... mmmmm!

all tapas all the time

has to be paella.

not Spanish, but I have to plug the new Basque tapas restaurant in Philly, Tinto - OMG this place is good. Just give these people their own country already! Check out the website.

although Paella does sound good and warm this time of year, I'm already missing cukes and tomatoes, so I'll go with gazpacho!

i can't think of my favorite but i'm sure i would have plenty of new favorites if i won this cookbook!

I have a stuffed pepper recipe that I like real well

I love tortilla de patates, and this grater would be great for grating all the potatoes!

I'm not familiar with Spanish cuisine....what better reason for awarding me the prize?

tapas

Mmm, spanish omelet. That and cheese sandwiches were what I ate every day when I was there and pregnant.

Tapas tapas and more tapas

I hear good things about paella

When we went to Italy last year I learned how to slice vegetables in strips, raw, and serve with balsamic vinegar, and maybe pinenuts - this grater/slicer would make perfect starters and salads.

I have the old-style, metal grater. You know, the kind you scrape your knuckles across when grating anything?! I'd appreciate a new, updated one!

I want to be able to grate something that doesn't include my knuckles - nifty nifty!

I'm trying to learn how to cook to surprise my boyfriend for the holidays (he's the chef in our haus...), and I'd love to make paella for him!

I love empanadas and all foods spanish, but definitely need more recipes.

The only Spanish dish I can think of is paella. Meaning, I need this book to expand my culinary horizons!

Spicy Marinated Manchego and olives...mmmmmm.

Paella. Yummy.

Hmmm....I'm a big fan of all sorts of tapas, but I've always wanted to make a huge paella for a party and have never managed to make one that tasted good enough to offer to the masses..

Man, this cookbook sounds awesome. Found out a few years we have Spanish blood in our family tree. Was lucky enough to visit Spain and while the budget dictated bargain restaurants, the food was fabulous. Would love to learn how to make it at home.

Anything my grandma used to cook for me, but if I had to choose it would be her arroz con habichuelas (rice and red beans). That brings back some wonderful memories!

jamon iberico with a good manchego cheese. olives and a crusty bread.

We love spicey food so this would be a welcome change to my repeating menu! And that grater has my name all over it!

Ooh! we went to spain this summer for our honeymoon. My absolute favorite dish (although there are so many great ones) are croquettas de jamon. I love the ham in Spain, it's so hard to get here though. I think my second fave is chorizo a la sidra, and maybe bulls tail (in soup). Yummy!

So many tapas - too hard to chose a favorite, but my mouth is watering just thinking about them...

Cold potato tortilla!

I have never been to Spain but I love paella. It would be a great way to travel without leaving my kitchen...

My favorite Spanish recipe would have to be simply Guacamole!!

That grater looks GRATE!

I love tortilla espanola and anything tapas!

Hands down, Paella.

Just came back from 2 weeks in Spain and the eating is amazing! From Middle Eastern inspired dishes in the south to incredible seafood in Barcelona and huate cuisine pintxos in San Sebastian and the Basque country. I loved sampling how different a tortilla de papa tasted everywhere and how easy it was to devour an entire serving of boquerones (fried sardines) like a bowl of popcorn. We had everything from tapas to sit down meals and lots and lots of beer, wine and cider. And I lost weight to boot! A wonderful country with a rich heritage which is reflected in their cuisine.
