The mushrooms that grow around the ski resort are also a frequent ingredient of the campurriana gastronomy, specially during the Fall, when they compose many regional stews and work as the base to other recipes such as the revueltos (scrambled eggs).

The presence of the dujos, bee hives that are produced with the empty trunks of the oaks, is also very interesting. Regarding the desserts, the rosquillas del Ebro and the pantorrillas are very popular in alto Campoo, its surroundings and regions such as Reinosa.
