See moreOver 100 recipes from the Spanish pantry
Every chef has their staple ingredients, and in The Spanish Pantry, award-winning chef José Pizarro invites you into his home kitchen to share his.
With a few key Spanish ingredients, you too can create an authentic, fuss-free meal, whether it’s a weeknight dinner or a feast for entertaining friends. José takes inspiration from the whole of Spain, featuring 'greatest hits'-type recipes – paella, tortilla, croquetas, classic stews, desserts and more. From ingenious ways to use tomatoes, peppers, garlic and olive oil to the more typically Spanish ingredients, such as Manchego, chorizo and jamón, these recipes follow José's signature style – short on ingredients yet punchy on taste.
Chapters are set out in 12 ingredient-based sections, as follows: Onions, Tomatoes, Peppers, Chorizo, Manchego, Almonds, Lemons, Rice, Chickpeas, Beans, Jamón and Saffron.
This stylish cookbook is filled with modern recipes and beautiful location photography from Spain and is an essential addition to your cookbook collection. Never before has Spanish food been so accessible or delicious.
