Coastal Flavours: Exploring the Typical Fruits of the Andalusian Coast
Published:
The coast of Andalusia, bathed by the warm Mediterranean sun, is a true paradise for food lovers. In addition to its rich Mediterranean cuisine, the region is also known for its delicious typical fruits, which are a real feast for the palate during the summer months.
One of the most emblematic fruits of the Andalusian coast is the bitter orange, known locally as the "Seville orange". These oranges are famous for their intense and slightly bitter taste, which makes them ideal for making jams, liqueurs and typical dishes such as the famous "bitter orange pâté".
Another typical fruit of the region is the avocado, which is grown in the fertile lands of the tropical coast of Granada and Malaga. Andalusian avocados are known for their generous size, smooth skin and creamy, tasty flesh. They can be enjoyed on their own, in salads, guacamole or even in desserts.
Strawberries are also an emblematic fruit of the Andalusian coast, especially in the province of Huelva. With their sweet and juicy taste, Huelva strawberries are appreciated throughout Spain and beyond. They can be enjoyed on their own, with cream or as an ingredient in a variety of typical desserts and sweets.
The cherimoya is another fruit characteristic of the tropical coast of Andalusia, especially in the province of Malaga. With its sweet and creamy taste, the custard apple is known as the "queen of tropical fruits" and can be enjoyed on its own, in smoothies, ice cream or even in savoury dishes.
Finally, we cannot forget the muscatel grape, grown in the wine-growing region of the coast of Malaga. These grapes are famous for their intense sweetness and aroma, which make them ideal for the production of sweet wines and sultanas, as well as to enjoy on their own as a dessert or aperitif.
