Visitors cannot leave Ibiza without discovering the benefits of the local gastronomy, based on the simplicity of preparing dishes that are based on the sea and the vegetable garden, the two sources of food from which the native population has historically been nourished.
If you land in Ibiza in the cold months, it is advisable to try the arroz de matanzas and the frita de cerdo, two dishes that are intimately related to the slaughter of the pig before Christmas to make sobrasadas and butifarras (the local sausages). In winter there is also mushroom season. Throughout the year, seafood dishes stand out: paellas, rice dishes a banda, stuffed squid, rice with lobster and bullit de peix, undoubtedly the star dish of Ibizan gastronomy, which consists of a combination of boiled rockfish with potatoes from the local garden that is accompanied by a arroz a banda. Located between Sant Antonio and Buscatell, don't miss the famous Can Rich Winery, the largest on the island. And for tapas lovers, it is worth trying the potato omelette, the coca de pimentos, the fried octopus and the crostes, loaves of stale bread seasoned with grated tomato, garlic and prosciutto, anchovies, dried fish or tuna, depending on your preference. To finish the meals, there is nothing better than daring to try the local watermelon or oranges or venture into the Ibizan pastries: flaó (cheesecake and mint), ensaimadas, macaroons de Sant Joan or greixonera, good proposals to taste with a café caleta (a type of coffee that is made in Ibiza by boiling the beans with liqueurs) or a glass of Ibizan herbs, the most consumed digestive food on the island. Finally, in Ibiza, the wine sector has been revitalised for a few years and there are currently several wineries operating in different parts of the island. Several of them can be visited and offer tastings.
