Where to go for the forbidden: 7 gastronomic routesAuthor Forbes for those who managed to get bored with the prohibited Hamon, Swiss cheese and oysters, Forbes selected Forbes. gastronomic routes. For jamon, you can now go to the south-west of Spain, for parmesan – to its homeland in Italian Parma, for white truffle – to Piedmont and the Alba gastronomic center, for American steaks – to a ranch in Colorado, and for oysters – to a festival in Irish Galway . Read more about travel for real gourmets in this review. Iberian ham When: all year round The world-renowned masterpiece of deli meats, the Iberian ham Pata Negra (“black leg”) is produced only in Iberia, that is, in the Iberian peninsula, and not throughout its territory, but only in the southwest and south of Spain. The geographical uniqueness of the product, which will be missed by all Russian grocery stores, is explained by the fact that for its production the hind legs of pigs of a certain breed are used, which are fed with acorns of holm oaks for 5 years. And if the Iberian pig can be relocated to another country, then holm oaks do not take root either in Italy or in France, where attempts have been made to plant them repeatedly. They grow only in southwestern Spain on an area of 1.1 million hectares. The most famous ham factory, Cinco Jotas, is located 100 km from Seville in the town of Jabugo (province of Huelva) in the heart of the Sierra Aracena and Picos de Aroche Natural Reserve. This is a place with a unique microclimate: dry days and wet nights, with hot summers and cold, but without snow and frost, winters. Since 1879, 100% pure Iberico de Bellota jamon (Cinco Jotas Bellota) has been produced here. The main square of Habugo, a city surrounded by oaks, chestnuts, pines and eucalyptus trees, is called “Jamon Square”, in honor of the masters of the art of cutting, a “Monument to the maestro-jamonero” has even been erected here. Habugo jamon is recommended to be stored in a dark and cool place at 10 to 15°C and cut at 20 to 25°C. First, a thick layer of skin must be removed from the ham in such a way that, at the end of the cut, cover the cut with it. You need to cut exactly as much jamon as you are going to eat at a time, and if there are still half-eaten slices on the table, they should be wrapped in cling film or wax paper to prevent long contact with air. At the Cinco Jotas factory, you can buy both a whole leg and a jamon hand-cut by master cortadores. There is also a special ritual for sliced jamon – before opening the package, you should immerse it in warm water for a few seconds, and after opening, spread the jamon on a plate and leave for 15 minutes at room temperature (the ideal temperature for proper use of jamon is 24 ° C) . Irish Oysters When: September The stone-walled fishing village of Galway, which became a city in the 13th century, is located 20 km0 from Dublin. Oysters harvested by local fishermen are considered the most delicious and expensive in the world. Every September since 1954, around the time of the oyster harvest, Galway has hosted a three-day Oyster Festival featuring an international oyster-opening championship, an Oyster Queen beauty pageant and a colorful parade of oysters to the accompaniment of Ireland’s national instruments, violins and flutes, and participants are given free Guinness and seafood snacks. The most spectacular part of the holiday is the championship, which begins at seven o’clock in the evening of the last day and continues until late at night. The winner of the competition is the one who manages to eat the most oysters and does not damage either the oyster or his own hands. Oysters should be opened with a special knife, in addition to quantity and speed, the jury also evaluates the elegance of eating. Oysters for the competition are carefully selected – each of them must be at least 76 mm in diameter. This year’s Galway Oyster Festival will take place from 25 to 28 September. Norwegian cod When: January-March and the North Sea. Despite the fact that the islands are located at the same latitude as Alaska and Greenland, the climate here is quite mild, thanks to the warm current of the Gulf Stream, even in the coldest month – January – the temperature does not fall below -1°C.
