COIN CRAFTWORKS AND GASTRONOMY |

CRAFTWORKS
The pottery of Coin, developed by many generations, is highly regarded
for its quality, colour treatment and form. The continuous research
into this magic craft, is the bridge that links us to our roots. Other
arts have been carried out in Coin for centuries. This will be obvious
to our visitors just by walking the squares and streets of our town. GASTRONOMY
Simple cooking, based on the market garden's products is
the distinctive pattern of the gastronomy of Coin. The "Sopa
Hervia" (boiled breadcrumb soup), " Sopa Poncima" (bread
and vegetable soup), "Gazpacho", "Gazpachuelo"
(egg soup), "Cachorrena", "Matamario" are typical
recipes of Coin. In winter, the most popular local dish is "Berza
con pringa" (green beans with pork meat). In his famous book
"Don Quixote", Cervantes called it "Olla Podrida"
(rotten stew). The typical bread is hand-kneaded and baked in a wood
fuelled oven. - According to baker's, the "Roscos de Semana Santa"
(easter donoughts) are outstanding and at Christmas we like "Rosquillas"
(fig donoughts) and sweet potatoe pies.
In Coin you can enjoy "tapas" (snacks), in most of the bars.
Dishes such as "magro con tomate"(pork in tomato sauce),
"filetitos" (little pork steaks), "ensaladillas"
(salads), "pescaito fnto" (fried fish), "aceitunas"
(olives)... are common.
