  • About

Escalibada is an eastern Spanish classic that makes full use of the abundant fresh vegetables grown locally. The name comes from the Catalan word for ‘charred’, and ideally the vegetables should be cooked over a barbecue to get a really full, smoky flavour. Escalibada can be served with any kind of preserved or marinated fish, though mackerel work perfectly.
