Cuisine  -  Ibiza Recipes

The people of Ibiza are huge fans of fresh, natural products. In the past it was impossible to find a country house that was not supplied with food from its own vegetable plot, its own fruit trees and its own livestock. In fact, there are still many homes where this tradition is kept alive, as the people of Ibiza are tremendously fond of their food.
The sea provides a fabulous variety of fish and shellfish, which can be eaten freshly caught and with few additional ingredients. The island's forests also contain unexpected surprises, such as delicious wild fungi (rovellons) growing under the pine trees or juicy green asparagus that pop up anarchically at the edges of forest trails.

Every Saturday and every Sunday from 10 to 15h in Ibiza, in the Old Market will be a market for local products.
