Alberca Salamanca hornazo recipe and where to eat at the pool

Before entering fully into the recipe ornazo h Salamanca, where you mention to eat good, great, was in the village of Pool . Me to be your sincere, until 4 days, I had no idea what was hornazo, and see you where, I ended up at the bakery of Maria Luz in the c / Tablao of the Pool (the street of souvenir "I call myself), and I ran in front of him.

entered
in the store looking for something like a pie to take home as sandwich, our day's excursion. And then we have a tremendous mazacote cornmeal cholesterol filled to the brim (ham, bacon, sausage and I know that most of sausage). I bought it with my reservation, thinking about my medical diet (of course), but as always, tempted to try something new. Thought it would be quite dry and I was right across settings. The corn flour bread reminded me of our talo con chorizo \u200b\u200b(very well to dietary cholesterol), and was melt in your mouth.
How
While the clerk said, something worth € 18 per kilo! "Find it cheaper, but no good!" And he was right. It was scrumptious. And now that you know where you can find a hornazo of death, I leave you with a little history and recipe of it that I found on the net ..

seems that hornazo of Salamanca came back in the sixteenth century, when Lent was put to the women of gay life outside the city. The men of the time they could not live without them, would find them on Easter Monday, with a pan full of earth products charra: pork, to be exact. And happily shared it with them as they brought them back to the city.

And now, if someone comes to life, this is the recipe that I found on the blog of Alberto Gonzales:

Ingredients for the dough (for about 6-8 people)

  • 500 gr.
  • flour 200 ml.
  • water 100 ml.
  • white wine 50 ml. olive oil 1 egg
  • 25 gr. lard
  • 25 gr.
  • fresh yeast 5 gr. sugar (a tablespoon of coffee)
  • 10 gr. salt (two teaspoons)
  • 1 / 8 Coffee spoon dye Yellow

Ingredients for the filling

  • 300-400 gr.
  • sausage
  • 300-400 gr. fillets of marinated pork (or bacon) 3 boiled eggs

Preparation First prepare the dough in two steps:
  1. Mix in a bowl with the aid of a Fork 300 gr. flour with 200 ml . water, the 100 ml. white wine, the 25 gr. fresh yeast, the 5 gr. sugar and dye . Cover with plastic wrap and let stand in refrigerator 2-3 hours .
  2. was added to the mix before the rest of the flour (200 gr.) , the 50 ml. olive oil, the 25 gr. melted lard , a beaten egg and 10 gr. salt. Mix using a fork and finish kneading by hand for several minutes. We put the dough in a bowl that we will cover with plastic wrap and let rest 1 or 2 hours in the refrigerator .
Once the dough is ready when split it into 2 and roll out with a roller each to leave with a thickness of about 3mm . Enough to fill a tray of about 30 × 40 cm .
have the first layer on a baking sheet on it over the filling and the second layer of dough.
firmly shut the borders, we spread the top layer surface with beaten egg and prick in several places with a fork to release air when cooking is not hollow inside.
We put the tray in a preheated oven at 200 º C in the lower third of oven, heat up and down for about 30 minutes .

Valley of Batuecas in

When still fresh colors, scents and scenery of Valle de las Batuecas , I'll write this post. The Batuecas for which I'm not sure where to locate it is to the north of Caceres Hurdes and land south of Salamanca. Located in the Sierra de France, is the natural area of \u200b\u200bLas Batuecas. In recent years, just one way or another, returning to this country stronger and harder still jealously guards its natural treasures.

This time, we stayed at the Abbey of the Templars (I'll talk about it later) and yesterday, we decided Going into the Batuecas Valley, guided almost exclusively by the flow of the river Batuecas , despite the redundancy. In Search of the Neolithic paintings that hide the multiple coats, begin the road and discovered much more than rock art. Butterflies of many colors and sizes, electrical dragonflies, yews, oaks, cypresses and umbrella pines, that's what the whole journey with us.
the shade of leafy trees ran our way, and every few minutes, we made a stop in a puddle of clear water . Refreshing dip for sure, but better than any self-respecting urban spa. Waterfalls, slides and pools, followed one another tranquilamentes, giving his blessing to the walkers.

Tour
clean, not yet apparent traces of cans of beer or cigarettes stacked. A wonderful about an idyllic setting. How long I wonder? I hope a lot. While the road is hard and there is no bar there, its beauty will last.

And today, I only tell you this, my wonderful encounter with an enchanted valley ...

PD. I forgot to tell you where to begin this journey. My advice is that you go by the house of the Park which is just off Swim Pool Batuecas address (a new building). They will give you all the information and plans you may need to not lose any of the Sierra de Francia. I leave the exact guidelines on how to get there, hoping that will leave no trace of your passage on the river, still as immaculate human garbage. As you are lowering the port Portillo (after all the curves!), Find the right a sign of national parks large enough, it says "game reserve." Indicates a dirt road running down to about 200 meters to the entrance of the Monastery of the Batuecas. Meteis you there, and you leave the car there. The truth is that there is little parking, and walk through the park rangers there, which never hurts. Here starts the path accompanying river.

Reverend Thank You Notes

Pool beaches in Malaga and Nerja Hotel Marinas de Nerja Beach & Spa

As I doubt that I return to Malaga Holiday (not for nothing, is simply to taste), the better I tell you now my time at the beaches of Nerja Hotel Marinas de Nerja Beach & Spa.

To begin to tell you that it is a destination that excited me, because when I was in the Mediterranean, I think, that the dark sand beaches of Malaga can not compete with those of other areas. Nor am I overly excited the "ole ole" and bulls, which, all the paraphernalia that usually ride for the tourists, I'm a bit lazy. Still, this year we encourage and we went down there.

I will start to talk about the hotel and the beach "Playazo" pun intended, where it was located . My hotel choice was based almost exclusively on that was 50 m from the sea and as I was imagining I just out of bed plunging into the warm sea waters of my childhood. No, the first day as we arrived, the first thing we did was go to the beach (which is supposed to have blue flag) and my career peliculera to shore is stopped cold! a suspicious mousse floating peacefully with these iridescent hues that often cause or fuel oil in ports. Yuck! I did not get wet above the knee.

But do not worry, we're not discouraged. We had a great pool at the hotel, so we would use the pool. Ja! the hotel was at 100% occupancy, so expect me some laps in the pool or catch a hammock, was fantasy, yesterday and today.

No problem, let's look at the good part of the case, we had a room overlooking sea and we're not going to complain at reception had worked hard to give that location. Great location, not to lose all the soirees that were held up late at night. Ideal if you want to live the "sauce" of the hotel, but I have inherently born soda, and just what I want is another type of "partying", what can I do.

And here we were wrong to deny that the Hotel, we decided to go for a drink at c hiringuito "chil out" the beach, where the background music is interspersed with music pachanguera pool. So I closed my eyes and threw myself to swallow my piña colada to see if I sense a bit clouded and dull I forgot what I had been to choose this hotel.

As rooms were nice, clean, practical, with a flat TV 32 '(yes), a nice terrace, beds regulín regularly ... It is seen that efforts had been made in soundproof rooms, not you heard anything from the next room, but they had forgotten to do something with the front door. He was so weak that even a fly could be heard as he passed in front. So if you intend to sleep after 7:30 am in the morning are ready! the transfer of clean cars is unbearable, and the constant paging long story. Remember to take earplugs, and you'll get up to 9 hours without waking. No more, because you lose your breakfast, and there is no way to breakfast after 10.30 h.

Let the spa. Because I was not going to go away without probrarlo, of course! The spa is a tiny pool has a steam room, sauna, Scottish shower, etc. .. we enjoy because we were alone, but I imagine that with 10 people, the thing gets a bit complicated, too small the site. However, I took the time to treatment chocolatherapy me (I always think the same, the repast!) And Mercedes, one of the masseurs from the hotel, so I tried to excellent. It's a lovely little girl and also has hands that are blessed glory. The service, really good, really.

I think that end, the best thing about this hotel is breakfast. Impressive, freshly squeezed juices, space for vegetarians, all fruits, meats, sweets and salty. Very, very well.

My recommendation? in summer is ideal for families with children, the kids passed it cannon, but it is not quiet to go with a partner at the time, what can we do?

As beaches, you will not find any agglomeration. Agglomeration I understand that you get to the beach and get to the frontline. Well, in these beaches virtually everywhere you can find a huequecito to be quiet without stepping to the side. They are all precious stones more or less, but look great. However, water quality is another story. Because what I've found floating in some of them I will not tell here. My favorite, Maro beach, clear water, low occupancy, is of pebbles and access is where God lost his sandal (one km of slope plus or minus, from where you leave the car. Then up the hill to the sunny noon!). Yes, have snack bar and well worth the effort.

And a little more I can tell, perhaps reticent to talk about what they are catering Nerja (do not speak the hotel where the service is very good), I speak of bars and restaurants in Nerja. In general, we found that the comrades @ s were almost deaf, did not know simple words like "hello" "bye" "thank you", rather they would roll "yes" "no", "grrr" "mmm "and a rare gesture that I could never decipher. Come see them happy with what they did.

Well, this was my time in Manchester, so eager to come back, because I have no truth. The people of Chanquete is very nice, but I think that the foreigners like more!
