It is also known as &#8220;empanada gallega&#8221; in Spain. The best way to describe an empanada is as a pastry filled with savoury ingredients. One distinctive feature of the Galician empanada is its size. While other empanadas are often small meat-filled pastries, the Galician variant is a large-sized pastry that is meant to serve an entire family. It is also often sold in smaller pieces for individual servings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delicious as a snack and perfect for on-the-go. Empanadas are easy to carry, can be eaten cold (and still taste great!), and it&#8217;s best enjoyed by eating with your hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.galiciatips.com\/nl\/files\/2019\/12\/empanada-tonijn.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My first encounter with the empanada is hilarious<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>My first memory of an empanada is rather comical. I was studying in Santiago de Compostela, and my parents came to visit from the Netherlands for a week. After their arrival, we went to my apartment to have a cup of coffee. My father thought it would be a good idea to have something tasty to go with it, like a nice cake or pastry. There was a bakery nearby, and my father was confident he could manage without speaking Spanish. After all, he could simply point to what he wanted in the display of the bakery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few minutes later, he returned with some delicious empanadas. To our surprise, when we took a bite, there was no sweet filling, but the savory filling that characterizes empanadas.<br>That&#8217;s when I learned that empanadas are not sweet treats but delightful savory snacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">History <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Empanada Gallega is truly a classic dish. It has been proven to be hundreds of years old. One piece of evidence can be seen on the famous P\u00f3rtica da la Gloria, the grand 12th-century entrance to the Cathedral of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/destinations\/santiago-de-compostela\/\">Santiago de Compostela<\/a>. The empanada has been around for that long!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Historical records describe the empanada as a practical dish. It&#8217;s easy to carry, keeps well, and it&#8217;s a great way to use up leftovers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Empanadas are not only eaten in Galicia but also in Portugal and South America. The dish has conquered these regions from its origins in Galicia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to make an empanada? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like many other traditional dishes, there is no single unique preparation method. Just as every mother in Italy makes a different rag\u00f9 bolognese, every Galician will give you a slightly different way to make empanada when asked for a recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you ask a Galician for the tastiest empanada, you&#8217;ll always get the same answer: &#8220;a da mi\u00f1a nai&#8221; (&#8220;my mother&#8217;s&#8221;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In general, an empanada Gallega consists of pastry and filling. Both the pastry and the filling can be prepared in various ways. The most well-known fillings are with tuna, cod, chicken, or beef. But there are also modern variants with mussels or even octopus. And, of course, you can easily make a vegetarian empanada. With a bit of imagination and experimentation, you can create delicious empanadas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can make empanadas yourself, but you can also enjoy a Galician empanada at many restaurants and bars in Galicia. It is often eaten as a snack and can also serve as a quick lunch or a filling tapa. In Santiago de Compostela, for example, you can enjoy a classic empanada at the nostalgic Taberna O Gato Negro (see my tips in Santiago de Compostela).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.galiciatips.com\/nl\/files\/2019\/12\/GCBC7_Ep59_Empanada-Gallega-700x404.jpg?resize=700%2C404&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Empanada recipes <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The internet is filled with empanada recipes. As we have seen, there are many variations in both the pastry and the filling. Here, I&#8217;ll describe one variant that I believe is the most traditional: empanada with tuna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What you&#8217;ll need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dough (you can either knead it yourself or use ready-made sheets of savory pastry)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Filling: \n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Onion <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Canned tuna (3 cans) <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Half a green bell pepper <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Instructions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Prepare the dough Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and grease a baking sheet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Saut\u00e9 the onion and bell pepper in a pan on the stove for a few minutes <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Place the base of your empanada on the baking sheet <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spread the onion mixture on the empanada, then add the tuna <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cover it with another piece of dough and seal the edges with the base <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bake the empanadas in the oven for half an hour <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>You can enjoy the empanadas warm, lukewarm, or cold. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whatever filling you choose, you can follow the above steps as a guide.
