Cocina Andaluza is a website devoted to traditional recipes from Andalusia, Spain. Its recipe collection is organized into appetizers, first courses, main dishes, and desserts, with a selection of recipes the site considers essential to the region.

• First courses: snails in almond sauce, gazpachuelo, Andalusian chickpeas, noodle casserole, Hinojos stew, and salmorejo, a chilled tomato soup.
• Main dishes: pork with tomato, Russian salad, pork tenderloin with Barbadillo wine, stuffed eggs, porra antequerana, and Spanish potato omelet.
• Desserts: fritters, Three Kings’ cake, Christmas yule log, lemon cake, peaches with honey, sponge cake, lemon mousse, and cheesecake.

Food festivals and dining guides

The site has sections on food festivals in all eight Andalusian provinces: Almería, Cádiz, Córdoba, Granada, Huelva, Jaén, Málaga, and Seville. It also publishes dining recommendations, with specific guides to snails and daily lunch menus in Málaga, daily menus in Granada, and tapas in Granada.
