Gastronomy in Spain

ORGANIC GASTRONOMY

Organic agriculture, based on a sustai- nable production model is becoming in- creasingly important in Spain. In 2016, Spain established itself as the European country that alloca- tes the most hectares to organic production ,and the fifth worldwide. Proof of this lies in the variety of organic products you will find in Spanish restau- rants and the increasing appearance of organic markets. This involves, for example, products like organic wine which has been gaining

standing on Spanish wine lists and is of high quality with an ever-increasing variety. Ecological awareness has also led to the production of other foods, such as meat and milk and a broad selection of greens , vegetables and fruit . In this regard, there are a growing num- ber of options for vegans and vegeta- rians. You no longer need to head to a specialised restaurant to find alternati- ves to traditional menus and enjoy Spa- nish gastronomy.
