Darina Allen: Bringing home a slice of tasty tapas from the south of Spain
Solomillo al whiskey is a specialty of many of the tapa bars in Seville, a classic, traditionally served with fried potatoes and a slice of bread to mop up the juices.
Recently, we spent a few days in the south of Spain, no it wasn’t warm and sunny, pretty much the same temperature as Ireland. Some days were wet and drizzly; others crisp with clear blue skies.
Such beautiful countryside, long legged black Ibérico pigs, roam freely through the Dehesa (woodlands) under the Cork oak trees around the town of Aracena, vultures soar through the air, wild boar and deer snuffle through the undergrowth … This is the highest town in the Sierra Morena mountains in Andalusia, spectacular walking countryside, deep in the heart of a prestigious jamón producing area.
