Close to the fertile areas of the riverbank from the south of Navarra, the gastronomy of Monreal is strongly influenced by the products that are cultivated there. Artichokes, peas, peppers, borage, sprouts and other similar ingredients are popular when eating in Monreal. The menestra, very common in other close villages, is also highly appreciated in here. The famous pochas de Sangüesa is another product that, due to its proximity, is very common in the menus of the restaurants of Monreal.
Regarding the meats, the calf, lamb and the chicken, along with many different varieties of traditional embutidos made with pork meat, share the main place with the traditional recipes of the region made with hunting meat. Due to the fact that Monreal is an interior area, some of the common fish species here are the trout and the cod, which can be found as an ingredient in dishes such as the ajoarriero. To complete the experience of eating in Monreal, we recommend you to try some of the wines with D.O. of the region.
