Canarian cuisine has its own personality<\/strong> <\/span>that locals find irresistible and that usually dazzles all those who visit any point of the archipelago at one time or another. Here are the keys to gastronomy in Tenerife that you need to know when you come to the island. <\/p>

In Tenerife, fresh produce and simple preparations prevail.<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

The Canary Islands are a crossroads in several ways, and cuisine is one of them. Geographically African, a secular bridge between Europe and America, the archipelago has combined different traditions and ways of understanding gastronomy; Aboriginal, European, and Latin American influences<\/strong><\/span> intersect to form a particular culinary culture. <\/p>

The basics of gastronomy in Tenerife<\/span> <\/strong>are few and very simple: very fresh and high-quality local or local products are used, they are prepared in very simple preparations and some of these preparations are used at very different times, as if they were wild cards.<\/p>

On the other hand, each island within the “Canarian universe” has its peculiarities<\/strong>;<\/span> not only geographical or landscape, but also at lunchtime. Thus, the gastronomy in Tenerife has a lot to do with that found in the rest of the Canary Islands, but at the same time it has its own personality that we invite you to discover. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Fish market, mill and banana plantation:<\/strong> <\/span>Visiting the places where it all begins is the best way to understand the weight of a certain product in a society. Visiting a fish market, a gofio mill or a banana plantation you will be able to see first-hand some of the gastronomic raw material most intensely rooted in the Canarian genome. <\/span><\/p>

Markets:<\/span> <\/strong>The markets are another must-see for those who want to soak up the daily culture of the place they visit; the offer of products from the garden, the fruit stalls, the different cuts of meat or fish… In addition, Tenerife’s colourful markets are lively and welcoming places that you will love.<\/span><\/p>

Typical Canarian food:<\/strong> <\/span>If you are looking for typical food, Tenerife will not disappoint you. Here you will not fail to find the great exponents of traditional Canarian cuisine. Wrinkled potatoes, mojo sauces, cheeses, stews and of course many desserts are dishes common to the entire archipelago that, logically, are also present in the gastronomy of Tenerife. <\/span><\/p>

Specialties of Tenerife:<\/strong> <\/span><\/span>Party meat, rabbit in salmorejo, marinated tuna, pickled mackerel, sancocho or frangollo are some of the favourite dishes of the people of Tenerife. If you are a connoisseur of Canarian gastronomy, discover the nuances of the local preparations too! It is even possible to observe subtle differences within the island, in the gastronomy of Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife, for example… <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
