Why does beer have to be part of your next tapas?
If you thought beer was just one more soda, think about it again. In Spain, it is the queen drink when it comes to enjoying a good lid. A study by rich croquettes reveals that an impressive 68% of diners choose a beer to accompany their choice of tapas. What’s weird in that? The union between beer and salty snacks is like the Batman and Robin of the palate.
The delights of rusticity: the most emblematic tapas
The offer is so wide and varied that making a list of the best tapas is a challenge. But here we bring you a summary that, although it may make you feel nostalgia for your forgotten favorite cover, it will surely make you salivate.
1. The croquettes: the hug of bite -shaped flavor
These little snacks are a true jewel of gastronomy. With a Bechamel base, croquettes reinvent themselves with multiple ingredients that make them irresistible. And if you don’t want to build a scandal in the kitchen, you can always do a favor and buy a good done by those who cook them with love. Because, let’s be honest, no one can resist a golden and creamy croquette.
2. Potatoes: the simplicity conquering palates
Each bite of fried potatoes, either with brave sauce or Alioli, is a small trip to happiness. With a few ingredients enough to create a companion worthy of any cane. These potatoes will leave you wanting more, especially if you accompany them with a good talk and laughs.
3. Russian salad: the dish that brings together everyone
This salad is a classic in all meetings and is always ready to win the heart (and stomach) of those who try it. Its mixture of tuna, potato and mayonnaise, with an extra vegetable wink, makes each bite a party.
4. Potato tortilla: The Queen of Tapas
We cannot ignore the potato tortilla, which could occupy any position in a ranking. With his juicy combination of eggs and potatoes, although if you add onion or not, it is a debate that can last an eternity. The important thing is that it is great with an frozen beer drink.
5. Iberian ham: luxury in each slice
This delicacy leaves anyone delighted and is perhaps the favorite of tourists. With a simple piece of bread, the Iberian ham knows Gloria. You always enjoy accompanied by that cold and refreshing beer.
6. Frying squid: the crispy tradition
Golden fried foods invite one bite after another. These squid, crispy and served with a touch of lemon, are perfect to complete your tapas day.
7. Anchovies and anchovies: The touch of the sea
Sea lovers will love this option. Both are delights of the ocean that combine perfectly with the beer, either fresh or canned.
8. Olives: the classic snack
What better than some picar olives while sharing laughs. This salty snack is also the symbol of the good company.
The culture of tapas: a national heritage
The tapas is an integral part of Spanish society, and the Ministry of Culture has decided that it deserves to be recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage. The tradition of going to cover is not only a culinary pleasure, it also unites us in moments of celebration and enjoyment.
