Confitería cantábrica : Viaje por los dulces del norte de España

Confitería Cantábrica is a delightful journey through the centuries-old confectionery tradition of northern Spain. To create it, María Mieres visited dozens of historic bakeries and confectioneries, explored convents, and chatted with pastry chefs who helped her develop the most authentic recipes for the original desserts. Along the way, she discovered the important, and often overlooked, role that many women have played —and continue to play— behind home ovens and confectionery counters. From Galician larpeira to Avilés marañuelas, by way of Pasiega quesada, Basque pantxineta, and Aoiz costrada, this sweet recipe book brings the confectionery tradition of northern Spain to your table, baked with love, leftover ingredients, patience, and ingenuity.
