Imagine with your Nose

While Menu Del Dia by Rohan Daft is a Spanish cookbook with no pictures but simple very doable recipes, Cook Espana Drink Espana is on the other end of the spectrum with pictures that make you wonder what the constituents of the plate are. Take Paparajotes for example - Lemon leaves deep-fried with eggs and cinnamon. So all the times that I smelled the lemon leaves in gardens, they were just eggs and cinnamon away from an exotic dessert. But its not that simple, a retinue of things and procedures go into it. But thats where the fun is.
Each section offers a mention of local specialities and details on wines.
