One of the best things about going on holiday, is trying local delicacies, and while Spain and its islands are renowned for Paella and Tapas, Mallorca also has its own distinct cuisine.
Mallorquin food is varied, colourful and full of flavour but more importantly it can only be found on the island! Our Head Chef, Samy de la Pena has shared some of his favourite traditional dishes which are all served at Son Bunyola.
Pa amb oli
This literally translates to bread and oil, and it’s simply delicious served with a spread of tomatoes, a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkling of flaked sea salt. It makes a great snack accompanied by cheese and cold meats too.
Sobrassada
A cured spicy sausage made of minced pork, paprika and other spices. It is often served with crispy bread as a snack or used in cooking to add a bit more flavour.
Coca de trampò
Similar to a pizza or vegetable tartlet, but without the cheese, it features tomatoes, red and green peppers, onions and served on a puff pastry base – perfect with salad for lunch.
Ensaïmada
This sugar-dusted delicacy is a bit like a croissant. It’s been proudly produced on the island since the 17th century – want to live like a local? Start your morning off with a coffee and one of these!
