Dishes such as the famous 'papas con mojo', 'ropa vieja' and 'gofio' or products such as their famous traditional cheeses or exotic wines from volcanic soil, have crossed borders and conquered palates from all corners of the planet.
Tenerife is an eclectic land, with migrants and citizens with origins from Venezuela, Columbia, Africa…who have left their mark on the island´s gastronomy. One bite at a time, immerse yourself in the sublime gastronomic journey of Tenerife.
Tenerife´s cuisine is simple and tasty in equal parts. Local products give it a unique flavour and its traditional dishes are a real delight for tourists and residents.
If we are talking about main ingredients, the banana is the true rockstar of Canarian gastronomy. But there is much more. Among the products you can eat in Tenerife, tropical fruits and vegetables abound, fresh fish, and meat from native species such as the goat.
The potatoes or 'papas', as we say in Tenerife, are present in many recipes in our cook book: stews, “pucheros” or with our star sauce, the mojo.
The mojo is a traditional sauce that accompanies many of the dishes you will eat in Tenerife: red, with paprika, or green, with coriander.
The cheeses, another of the delicacies you can eat in Tenerife, are made mainly from goat's milk, although you can also find them with cow's and sheep's milk, an authentic delicacy.
Among its most traditional dishes, you can find the "ropa vieja", a dish that used to be made with the stew leftover ingredients, using chickpeas and various types of meat, which is then spiced, shredded and mixed in the pan with the rest of the chickpeas and potatoes left over from the stew.
Another dish you should eat in Tenerife is gofio. Of aboriginal origin, it is prepared from cereals and has many nutritional properties. It is made from different grains that give rise to a very fine wholegrain flour and is sometimes used complementary as a side dish, and occasionally as an ingredient in desserts and ice creams.
Tenerife is, historically, land of wines and offers five own Denominations of Origin: Abona, Tacoronte-Acentejo, Ycoden-Daute-Isora, Valle de Güímar and Valle de La Orotava. With century-old vines with more than four centuries of history, Tenerife preserves some of the oldest Malvasia grapes in the world and produces very original volcanic soil-based wines.
