Season’s Eatings from Spain!

Fellow blogger, Katie of Thyme For Cooking has hosted a fun foodie swap called Season’s Eatings for the holidays. I participated in this and my package of goodies arrived today… from Barcelona Spain!

dsc00302-7406095A heart felt ‘Thank You!‘ goes out to Nuria of Spanish Recipes for her wonderful and tasty package. I’m so psyched with the goodies I received:

White Beans
Nuria picked this up from her local Farmer’s Market. She says they’ve been harvested recently and are famous in Spain for their fine and tender texture when cooked.dsc00304-1469166
Ceps: A type of mushroom which are great with meat, omelettes and rice.
Noras: This is a small dry pepper that is used in sauces, stews and with legumes.dsc00303-1785254
Saffron
A great spice, especially coming straight from Spain… and is essential in paella!dsc00305-7631583

If you have any recipes using the above ingredients, I’d love to hear about them! I know Nuria has quite a few in her blog that I hope to try soon!

    Oh wow that is a really cool exchange! My sister brought me back some jarred black truffles from Spain last year…I’d love to find some of those!

    What wonderful treats! Saffron – Paella – can’t wait to see what you do. And those beans are great! I’m not familiar with the ‘nora.
    Merry Christmas
