It seems so silly but I really did have a hard time! I kept calling everything a “sopa” and didn’t understand why I was wrong 😂🙃

Haha my next undertaking will be a flowchart of all the different types of cake, which is also very confusing (or at least to me)!

L loved the butternut squash soup! The first taste which I hadn’t been able to taste anything for at least 2years ! To me it tasted like sweet potatoes! I was so happy because I love sweet potatoes! I think what made the difference was the butternut was homegrown from a garden. The next time I made it alone with store bought squash and it didn’t taste the same!

It does have a similar profile to sweet potato! Homegrown (and seasonal) squash definitely makes a difference!

I hope you enjoy the beef stew! (And that you can find the suet in Spain. Can you buy British suet in Spain? Is it in the British food section? I have no idea.)

Thanks! It was the thyme dumplings that caught my eye; it sounds delicious!

I don’t know if we can get suet in the regular supermarket here, but I’m almost positive they would have it (or something very similar) at one of the butcher shops. I’ll have to investigate!

I was actually thinking of making it for my family when I visit them in the US. If I can’t find suet, is there a good substitute you would recommend?

The butcher shop is the answer as suet is essentially is the hard fat of beef, finely grated.

Love your official flowchart! Quite interesting as, right now I just realized... What's the difference between "guiso" and "estofado"??? 😯

According to my mom recipes, "estofado" should include vinegar!

Oh, oh, another question! Have you ever tried "la sopa de ajo"? Here in Burgos is soooo popular!
