La Palma is an essential destination for lovers of nature and good gastronomy. The unique flavour of the products of La Palma is directly related to the volcanic origin of the island and the purity of its raw materials.
Some of the typical dishes of "la isla bonita" are roasted cheese with green mojo, papas arrugadas with red mojo, escaldón de gofio and chicharrones (pork rinds) covered with gofio.
Mojo rojo from La Palma
Mojo rojo de La Palma is a Canarian sauce with an intense, spicy flavour. Elaborated with pepper from La Palma (also known as "pimienta picona"), garlic and spices, it is a characteristic ingredient in the gastronomy of this island. Discover all the brands of mojo palmero that you can buy in CanarianMarket.
Typical sweets from La Palma
Almendrados, Bienmesabe and Príncipe Alberto are the traditional Canary Island desserts from La Palma. All of them are characterised by the fact that they all have almonds as a common ingredient. The reason for this is that almond trees are one of the star elements of the island's landscape. These can be found in areas such as Puntagorda, El Paso, Tijarafe and Villa de Garafía. In February, Puntagorda also dresses in white for the Fiesta del Almendro en Flor (Almond Blossom Festival), which has been declared an Asset of Tourist Interest in the Canary Islands.
The salt from La Palma
In the far north of the island are the salt mines of Fuencaliente, an essential stop if you visit the island of La Palma. Salt is produced here using traditional techniques. Both the beauty of the surroundings and the chance to learn about the process of obtaining the exquisite salt of La Palma make this a magical place.
