"Gastro-exchange" why not?


Normally, when we go to a new country gastronomy is undoubtedly one of the main aspects of any tourist's attention.

On the other hand those who live far from our country or village, we always have the tendency to bring that home-made product that our family has specially prepared for us or simply a typical product that in our day to day lets us to "travel" back our origins, even if it is for a few minutes...

I would say that the mix of both issues and a and a mutual passion for gastronomy may be a good trigger for you to start this practice with your friends, colleagues or neighbors: The Gastro-exchange...

The quality of the raw material makes all the difference but when you join the appropriate ingredients you will certainly get a real treasure ... Last Thursday these wonderful tomatoes from the region of Almeria (Spain), seasoned with a magnificent extra virgin olive oil from the same region and with a bit of Maldon salt ... As an exchange I brought my friend a couple of Alheiras de caça, A portuguese sausage, that does not exist here in Spain ...

This not only a good way to share common likes, but also a good way to spread the culture of our coutries/origins...
