For a fun read on Spain, pick up Grape, Olive, Pig by Matt Goulding. Part culinary exposé, part memoir, part love letter to Spain, the book showcases the deep food traditions across Spain and the author’s discoveries of them as an American building his life and family in Barcelona. Goulding’s reflections are so compelling that you will be tempted to hop on the next plane and head straight towards the first jamón-filled restaurant you see. Go for it! And get this book. It’s great.
