The food of Spain has become one of the most beloved cuisines in the UK. Paella, chorizo, paprika – all dishes and ingredients that appear in restaurants and our weekly shopping baskets. But many of the highest quality Spanish ingredients imported to the UK are sold by Brindisa, with shops in Balham and Borough Market in London. Monika Linton founded the company in 1988 to spread awareness of her favourite Spanish ingredients, growing the business into what it is today.
If you’d like to hear more about Monika’s story and Brindisa in general, listen to the latest episode of The FoodTalk Show, where she shares her love for the country’s cuisine and how British awareness of Spanish products has grown over the years. And if you love to cook Spanish food at home, read on and make sure you have all of these ingredients to hand.
