\nIn Tortosa, every recipe tells a story. Gastronomy is part of our intangible heritage<\/strong>: a legacy passed down from mothers to daughters, from grandparents to grandchildren, through flavours that speak of the river, the market garden, the forest and the sea.<\/p>
\nThis is our cuisine of memory<\/strong>. A humble, seasonal and resourceful cooking tradition, yet also rich, creative and deeply rooted in the land. Dishes such as menjar blanc<\/em>, borratxets<\/em> omelette<\/strong> or rabbit in sauce<\/strong> do more than fill plates \u2014 they nourish the soul.<\/p>
\nThis collection of recipes, accompanied by videos recorded at the Escola d\u2019Hoteleria of Institut Dertosa<\/strong> and guided by chef Margaret Nofre<\/strong>, forms part of the project \u201cTortosa, the past is an adventure<\/strong>\u201d, co-financed by the Next Generation EU funds<\/strong> through the 2022 Tourism Sustainability Plan in Destinations<\/strong>.<\/p>
