Very often, when you go to a foreign country, whether for vacation or for transfer, in addition to customs and traditions, you can also take a look at typical local products to understand what to eat in Tenerife!
Turning the internet you will find many things that seem to say the least very good .. Being a country that is based on tourism, you will find many cuisines including Eastern, Western, Chinese, Japanese, English etc … but our culinary journey will be only dedicated to Canarian cuisine.
To understand what to eat in Tenerife we enter in a Guachinche, once it was a small inn where the owners made their own wine accompanied by tapas (food preparations consumed as an aperitif or appetizer), to date remains the “old” name but they are become real restaurants where you can eat the Canarian specialties.
So, what to eat in Tenerife? There are the papas arrugadas with mojo verde and rojo, the compote of goat meat, the conejo en salmorejo, the homemade croquettes of chicken or ham, the goat’s cheese grilled with jam, the Sancocho, the Garbanzo, the chicken a la braise.
Most of the tinerfeñe’s culinary specialties are mainly meat and fish, potatoes and sausages and, not having the pasta culture as first courses, they have soups, especially vegetables.
We know, sometimes only the name of that dish can seem like something for which you can say: “I will never eat it”, but how will you ever know if you like it or not if you don’t taste it ?? !!
Bananas and exotic fruit at will, the opposite for desserts, where we remember the Frangollo and the Flan!
