The Canarian cuisine combines simplicity with ingenuity.

Staple food in the Canaries was gofio for millennia, a flour made from roasted maize , millet or barley grains. The cultivation of corn was easy and possible because of terraced fields in the mountains. Wherever spring water bubbled through canyons were grinded millstones . Always available and universally used, was the yellow or light brown powder, a high-protein, saturating food . Furthermore mixing, it ads other flavors. Whenever seeing gofio escaldado on a menu, with thickened Gofioflower caldo ( broth ) definitely give it a try . Innovative chefs mix the fine powder now even ice cream and banana puree-daring, but quite tasty creations.

Soups and stews are very popular, the coveted potajes . These are made in all variants and with fresh vegetables. Especially recommended is the potaje canario , a hearty vegetable soup . Ropa vieja , puchero and rancho canario , meat and vegetable stews are delicious with fresh pork , chickpeas , potatoes, noodles , onions , saffron , garlic and Spanish chorizo , a spicy sausage , cooked and belong to the strongest and most original thing Tenerife kitchen has to offer and are a must of the Canarian traditional cuisine.

Especially recommended is the freshest fish and seafood , which are mainly a la plancha , simply fried in hot olive oil in a pan. The most popular are la vieja , cherne, sama , caballa , bocinegro and of course the tuna. They are all extremely chewy Canarian fish that develop particularly well with salad and taste their mojo . Also popular are breaded and choco pulpo , octopus two ways.

The classic side dish are Papas arrugadas, a well-known and popular tourist snack, the ” wrinkled potatoes ” available in every restaurant. They are a special small breeding, dark from the outside , yellow on the inside. Serve with the second and famous delicacy , the mojo . This sauce is available in two variants , verde o rojo – red or green, and goes with any Canarian dish. The Red is a creamy spicy sauce of red liquid to hot peppers, oil, garlic , vinegar and salt and often accompanies meat dishes. The green mojo is made as the red one, but instead of red peppers it contains lots of parsley . This may not be missing in any fish dish.

You should definitely try the conejo al salmorejo , fried rabbit in a pickle of bay leaves, garlic and wine, accompanied ofcourse with the Papas arrugadas.

Meals are accompanied by one of the islands best wine. There is an extensive choice whether white or red wine, whether from the north or south , there is something for every taste . Tenerife is the largest wine exporter in the Canary Islands and many have even been awarded worldwide . Who does not like wine , drinks Dorada, the popular island beer.

To round off a good meal without dessert would be a reprehensible failure . In addition to all kinds of fruit – bananas , oranges and apricots until papayas, mangoes and guavas , all harvested on the island – is flan, caramel custard, a popular dessert . Highlight Canarian desserts are bienmesabe, made from honey , limes or lemons, almonds and eggs. Completion of each meal is a cortado or solo-an espresso with or without milk.
