She is a giant of the Spanish Food and Wine movement.... She probably single-handedly brought Basque Cuisine in the limelight of the English Speaking world...
María José Sevilla has worked for many years in the field of Food and Wine. She is a cook, a writer and a broadcaster who has been at the centre of the discovery of Spanish cuisine by chefs and food writers throughout the world.
Who best then, to tell me all about the long history of Spanish food and cuisine other than her?
We caught up into a chat in her home, discussing her new book "Delicioso: A History of Food in Spain" which you can order here:
https://reaktionbooks.co.uk/work/delicioso
This is the first book in English to trace the history of the food of Spain from antiquity to the present day.
From the use of pork fat and olive oil to the Spanish passion for eggplants and pomegranates, María José Sevilla skilfully weaves together the history of Spanish cuisine, the circumstances affecting its development and characteristics, and the country’s changing relationship to food and cookery.
Enjoy!
