Basques are uniquely obsessed with food. This is no surprise in a land so abundant in edible natural resources. Sparkling rivers, cold seas, humid forests, and lush valleys all contribute excellent-quality ingredients, arguably some of the best in the world. And the home and professional cooks inhabiting this food-loving culture know what to do with them— from brilliantly simple sauced fish to homey stews rich with peppers and onions, the Basque cuisine excels at taking a good product and enhancing, not hiding, its flavor.

Everything of importance in this small region, nestled in the north corner of Spain and the south of France, happens around the table.
