In other parts of Spain, one of the main ingredientes of the sauce is mayonnaise, which gives a completely different taste to patatas bravas. You can see the look here: instagram.com/p/CbdIEAUoigN/ (it's a photo of ours at Senyor Vermut in Barcelona, one of our all-time favorite patatas bravas). All the best!

    Thank you for another fantastic video and recommendations! I'm genuinely curious about the lack of vegetables (besides potato, padron peppers) on the tapas menu. I watched a few videos about planning Camino de Santiago, and noticed the same theme - the lack of vegetables on the pilgrim menus. In fact, one of them jokingly said, if you spot a salad on the menu ...grab it! Would love to hear a Spanish person's take on this topic. P. S. I'm not vegetarian/vegan.

    • @ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal
      @ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal  2 года назад +2

      Thank you, you touch on a sore point indeed. Although there are plenty of vegetarian and vegan restaurants everywhere in Madrid -some of them are really good-, vegetarians need to be extra careful when ordering their tapas. But most "menús del día" always feature a salad which, in a perverse way, might not be strictly vegetarian. Oh, well, that's Spain for you!

      La verdad que los bares hacen las tapas que más piden la gente, pero España es muy diversa en cuanto a su gastronomía y si vas Andalucía que es de donde yo vivo, precisamente de Jaén, lo primero que te vas ha encontrar es la tapa gratis por pedirte una bebida y la tapa más común aquí es las habas crudas con aceite de oliva o una pipirrana que consiste en tomate, pimiento verde y rojo, cebolla y huevo cocido todo muy picado con una vinagreta(sal, vinagre y aceite de oliva) y en toda Andalucia casi siempre en lo menu tenemos gazpacho ( zumo de tomate y otras verduras) y el salmorejo(crema de tomate, con pan y año y aceite de oliva) como ves hay más verdura pero es también porque aquí hace más calor que en Galicia y se toma comidas más ligeras, aunque la carne y el pescado también están presentes.

    Buen vídeo, como siempre.
    Algo que me preguntaba últimamente, y que has mencionado en tu vídeo subrepticiamente, es por qué los madrileños insisisten en cometer lo que en mi opinión son dos atrocidades constantes, en dos de los platos más tradicionales de la gastronomía española: en el caso de las bravas, una simple salsa picante roja es la norma, en vez de una salsita mucho más jugosa y con mucha mayor textura (como la que te dan en el Montesol, yatusabeh...); y los bocatas de calamares incluso peor: a palo seco la norma, y si tienes suerte con un sobrecito de mayonesa que pides aparte, si te lo sirven.
    ¿No es costumbre hacerlo así en la mayor parte de España, y no "a la madrileña"?

Pero es que hasta una mayonesa del Mercadona mezclada con Tabasco y un toquecito de pimienta (que ya me he fabricado unas cuantas veces) le da tres vueltas a las "bravas" de Madrid... :/
      Y lo del "bocata icónico" tiene doble delito: el primero, el de la sequedad; y el segundo, que el 99% de los garitos que ofrecen "bocata de calamares", no te están dando calamar, sino pota, que es el primo pobre y mucho más barato que el calamar, y que es la razón por la que te ofrecen bocatas a 3.50€ en el corazón más turístico de Madrid; práctica igualmente usada desde "El Brillante" hasta "El calamar bravo"... ;)
