From spring to mid
summer you’ll also see signs up in many bars in Ubeda and Baeza announcing that “Hay Caracoles”, i.e. snails are
available. During their season, they’re perhaps the most popular tapa among the locals, who’ll cross town
to find a bar that serves them to their taste. These snails are dinky little
things, a far cry from what you’ll encounter in Madrid or France. They’re
gently stewed and the art is in the ingredients that the chef adds, orange peel
and mint often being put in.
