Basque Cuisine is a culinary tradition from the Basque Country, an area located between Spain and France. It is known for its emphasis on fresh, high-quality ingredients, including seafood, meats, and vegetables. Traditional dishes often feature simple preparations that highlight the natural flavors of the ingredients, such as grilled fish and stews. One of the most famous aspects of Basque Cuisine is the use of pintxos, small snacks typically served on skewers or toothpicks. These bite-sized treats are often enjoyed in local bars and are accompanied by a glass of txakoli, a slightly sparkling white wine. The cuisine reflects the region's rich agricultural and maritime heritage.
