SECOND:
MORUNO SKEWERS
Cubes of meat marinated with a mixture of herbs and spices, cooked until golden on the outside but tender on the inside: the homemade version of this bar classic is worth the -little- effort.
DESSERT:
TANGERINE AND CHEESE CAKE GLASSES
The key to its success is the combination of sweet flavors with the salty touch of cream cheese and feta, plus the acidic addition of mandarin orange.
Tuesday February 6
FIRST:
CREAM OF CAULIFLOWER, BEER AND LEMON
It has bitter and acidic hints that distance it from the conventional, but at the same time it is very smooth, without a trace of gaseous nuances.
SECOND:
MACARONI WITH CHORIZO
Enough of squeamishness and complexes: macaroni with tomato and chorizo are one of the greatest Spanish inventions and they have nothing to be ashamed of.
Sausage?
Full, please.
We can smell them from hereAna Vega 'Biscayenne'
DESSERT:
SEASONAL FRUIT: KIWI
The national kiwi is in season, it is one of the fruits with the highest concentration of vitamin C, it is eaten by the spoonful and is delicious, what more reasons do you need to make it your dessert?

FIRST:
MORUNA CARROT
One of the healthiest and most delicious snacks in the world is served in Morocco and in some areas of Andalusia, and consists of something as simple as boiled and seasoned carrots.
SECOND:
BROCCOLI AND TOFU SAUTE WITH CHICKPEA
You have to start seeing tofu for what it is: a sponge that absorbs flavor.
So if it's bland, it's still your fault.
DESSERT:
GINGER, CARDAMOM AND BUTTER COOKIES
Soft, spicy, buttery, sweet and dangerous, because you can eat 20 without realizing it.
These are cookies, perfect to accompany tea or chocolate on a cold winter afternoon.

FIRST:
ENDIVE AND CELERY SALAD WITH FENNEL AND MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE
Reviled by many and loved by fewer, celery is a great ingredient to give a crunchy touch to salads.
Here it combines with endives, the freshness of fennel and a tasty vinaigrette.
SECOND:
SEAM WITH BUTTER AND LEMON
The French technique called
meunière
emulsifies butter with lemon juice, and is perfect to accompany fish such as sea bream.
Some seasonal vegetables round out the dish.
That sauce is heavenClara Pérez Villalón
DESSERT:
SEASONAL FRUIT: MANDARIN
Ok: the smell of tangerines is not easy to remove from your fingers, but it is a lesser evil compared to their juiciness.
Friday February 9
FIRST:
CREAM OF LEEK AND ROASTED GARLIC
If when we turn on the oven to cook anything we add a few heads of garlic, we will get a soft and confit version of them.
We can use them in dishes like this tasty cream.
SECOND:
CHICKPEA WITH SPINACH, RAISINS, PINE PINE AND SAUTIFARRA
A twist on the classic Catalan spinach, which becomes a tasty unique dish thanks to the chickpeas and gains flavor with a stir-fry and a touch of sausage.
Without sausage it is also very goodMònica Escudero
DESSERT:
HOMEMADE DULCE DE LECHE
If you like the supermarket version of this vacaburristic delight that the Southern Cone discovered for us, wait until you try its artisanal version, more pleasant and addictive than all of Quino's complete works.
Saturday February 10
