Spanish desserts are very diverse, but there are some that every good Spanish housewife loves to prepare for her family. Here are some of them:
Melindres pastries
Necessary products: 12 egg yolks, 3 tbsp sugar, peel of 1 lemon, 1 tsp cinnamon, 100 g butter, 1 tbsp mastic, 200 g flour, 4 tbsp powdered sugar
Method of preparation: Beat the yolks together with the sugar, lemon zest and cinnamon until a relatively thick mixture is obtained. The melted butter, mastic and flour are added to it and everything is mixed until a dough is obtained. It is placed in a syringe and strips with a length of 10 cm and a width of 3 cm are formed on a tray with baking paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 10 minutes.
Cream Valencia
Necessary products: 6 eggs, 250 g powdered sugar, juice of 6 oranges and 1 lemon, 8 sheets of gelatin
Method of preparation: It is important to note that this cream stays on overnight, so you need to prepare it one day before you want to consume it.
The yolks and whites are separated. Beat the yolks until white together with the powdered sugar. The pre-squeezed fruit juice and the gelatin soaked in water are added to them.
Mix everything well again with a mixer until it thickens and finally add the whipped egg whites gradually to the resulting mixture. Mix everything lightly with a spoon and pour into a pre-drenched pan. Allow to gel for at least 12 hours.
Almond tart Santiago
Necessary products: 8 eggs, 100 g butter, 200 g flour, 500 g sugar, 300 g ground almonds, 1 tbsp cinnamon, 70 ml Sherry wine, 50 g powdered sugar
Method of preparation: Beat 2 of the eggs together with the butter. Add the flour and mix until you get a smooth dough, from which you make the thinnest possible crust. Put it in a pan greased with oil and sprinkled with flour, and the dough should take the shape of a bowl, because you will pour cream into it. Separately mix the almonds with the sugar and cinnamon.
Add the wine and eggs and mix well. Fill the dough bowl with this mixture and cut the edges. Put to bake in a moderate oven for about an hour.
From cardboard you cut out a pattern on the cross of St. Jacob and place it on the pie. Sprinkle everything with powdered sugar and after removing the template the shape of the waist will be clearly visible. The cake is prepared in almost every Spanish family in honor of the patron saint of Galicia, St. Jacob.
Other emblematic desserts from Spanish cuisine are: Churos, Paneletti, Spanish chocolate churos, Gijón turon, Fried milk, Spanish cake with almonds, Rice cake according to a Spanish recipe, Flan with cinnamon.
