Description:
Basque country is a union of opposites: a mountain culture perched on the edge of the sea. Though this region straddles the Pyrenees, beginning at the throat of the Iberian peninsula and ending in southern France, the Basques share a commonality of spirit and culture that has lasted for more than 5,000 years, withstanding countless invasions. The influx of foreigners enriched the basic Basque cuisine of fish, meat, and grains: the Romans brought wheat, wine, and olive oil, the Muslims introduced rice and citrus, explorers from the Americas returned with corn, chocolate, tomatoes, peppers, and potatoes, resulting in extraordinarily distinctive flavors. The food is enticing, and the travel and cultural information will inspire readers to visit.
