Many people associate Spanish food with paella and sangria and nothing else, but the reality couldn’t be more different. Because Spain is such a massive country, food is very regional. Many of these recipes come from Miguel’s hometown of Murcia in the south-east of Spain, a generous and extroverted region with a rich culinary tradition. In his hometown Miguel claims there are some of the best chefs in the world. The Spanish people love their food dearly and these recipes are a collection of Miguel’s favourites. He shares his culinary traditions, his childhood memories of growing up in a large household that revolved around cooking and eating, and his experience working in some of the world’s best restaurants. Miguel’s passion for food and life is infectious and well expressed in the great recipes he includes. As he says, food cooked with love and passion tastes better—so why do it any other way?
