Marmitako – Basque Fish Stew

“This warming Basque fish stew receives its name from the saucepan that it is cooked in, a Marmita.” From notesfromspain.com Posted for ZWT 5.

Braised Basque Chicken

From Diane Phillips, “Slow Cooker: The Best Cookbook Ever” – posted here to keep from looking at it.

Basque Garbanzo Bean Soup

My mother got this recipe from one of her “Women’s magazines”. It has been a favorite ever since. It can also be served over couscous.

Basque Cornbread (Pain De Maïs)

Columbus took cornbread back to the Old World in the 15th century, and thanks to some of his Basque crew, cornbreads took hold and are still produced in local bakeries. Nice with a hearty soup or stew.

Basque Lamb Shanks

I have never tried this recipe in a slow cooker but I think it could easily be adapted . Cook the shanks on low all day, have the beans prepared and finish the last steps before serving. Great taste, don’t be scared of the 12 cloves of garlic.
