Pulpo anyone?
Hard to come to Spain and not to have “pulpo” (octopus). The "pulpeiras" (restaurants specialized in octopus) would cook the animal in copper cauldrons and serve the octopi in wooden plates. It is said that the copper pot gives it an incomparable taste that it's impossible to obtain with any other material. The most famous pulpo recipe is “pulpo a la gallega”. The name in galician for pulpo a la gallega is "pulpo a feira" (fair style octopus) for a very simple reason. During the cattle fairs the farmers would buy or sell cattle, sell their farm products, etc, and buy groceries such as salt, sugar and other products they didn't have daily access to and of course ate pulpo at the fair.
