Aragonese food was my second incursion into the cuisines of Spain, and I am becoming convinced that Spanish food is among the great undiscovered cuisines of the world. Yes, there are a few Spanish restaurants here and there, but Spanish food has not achieved the level of ubiquity that French and Italian cuisine has, and that I'm becoming more and more convinced it deserves. Needless to say, I very much enjoy both cooking and eating the Aragonese dishes below. They were hearty, delicious, a bit unusual and very satisfying. I chose them because they were among the most typical dishes (pollo al chilindrón, melocotón en vino), but also showed the avant garde of Aragonese cuisine (the salad). The menu worked very well and I would recommend it. I couldn't find Aragonese wine, so I served it with Rioja wine and, of course, they went well together. The menu I served consisted of: Salad with nuts, cheese tomatoes and honey vinaigrette followed by: Pollo al Chilindrón Chicken with Red Peppers, served with: Migas Aragonesas Aragonese Bread Bits. And for dessert: Melocotón con Vino Peaches in Wine Sauce Aragonese Food Links Bibliography - cookbooks I used Recetas de la Red Aragón El Recetario - Cocina Regional: Aragón
