Nearly two hundred cheese samples and sixty-five dairies from the Archipelago were cited earlier this week on La Palma at the 21st edition of Official Agrocanarias Cheese Contest 2022 organized by the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries of the Government of the Canary Islands. ‘Green Onions’ from the Canary Islands Radio gives an account of this Contest, the most attended to date, and does so by the hand of a expert taster, Isidro Jiménez.
Island wedges
The participation figures by Islands show the good health of the sector and serve as the first trace of the Canarian cheese wedges that no one should miss: 51 samples and 18 dairies from The Palm; 7 samples and 4 dairies from The iron; 32 samples and 10 dairies from Fuerteventura; 49 samples and 16 dairies from Gran Canaria; 3 samples and 2 dairies from La Gomera; 21 samples and 5 dairies from Lanzarote; and 27 samples and 10 dairies from Tenerife.
Vermouth from Tenerife
And as a pairing a vermouth, is what he proposes to us ‘Green onions‘ which echoes the Tenerife Vermouth promotional campaign launched by the Island Council in Social Networks to publicize these macerated wines . This spirit has been made for a few years on the island and with remarkable quality.
A good appetizer to take us to La Palma to the kitchens of Marian Hernandez, of La Gatera restaurantin Breña Alta.
