| Tortilla for breakfast at the Mercado Nuestra Señora de África |
On Tuesday 26 March, within the activities scheduled for the II International Potato Forum (taking place Monday and Tuesday at the Auditorio de Tenerife), the II Edition of the National Contest of Tortillas de Papas will be held in Tenerife. Five finalists have been selected who will present their recipe for the 'best tortilla in Spain'.
The contestants must make a potato omelet in front of the jury and explain the preparation and the tricks they use, step by step, to obtain the best version of one of the most representative dishes of Spanish cuisine. Competing for this award are Lola Cuerda, Casa Dani (Madrid); Jorge Lozano, Tapas 3.0 (Salamanca); Gorka Rodríguez, Pulpería de Melide (La Coruña); Senén González, Sagartoki (Vitoria), and Ana del Carmen Pacheco Martín, Bar Aithay, Mercado Nuestra Señora de África (Tenerife).
The jury, made up of 'great figures of gastronomy', will proclaim the winner. The final will be held at 5:00 pm in the Chamber Room of the Auditorium of Tenerife. The winner will receive, from the Government of the Canary Islands and the Cabildo de Tenerife (Island Corporation), his or her weight in the ancient potatoes of Tenerife.
