Liquid Gold: Andalucia

José explores the wonders of Spanish olive oil in Andalucía, joining workers in the field for the olive harvest and a traditional harvest breakfast. Bringing the oil back home, he uses the liquid gold to put a distinctively Spanish twist on a classic American dish—chicken wings. After preparing a classic Andalucían soup, salmorejo, José heads for a freiduria (a fried fish restaurant) in the beautiful area around Seville, where great Spanish olive oil and delicious fish from the nearby Mediterranean combine for astounding fried fish tapas.

The Onion That Would be King: Cataluña

José travels to Cataluña, the region where he was raised, to join in the Calçot Festival, a joyous occasion attended by thousands that honors, of all things, an unusual onion. He uses a similar onion to cook a white bean omelet, and shows us how to create two more traditional dishes from this area: One is mar y montaña, (Spanish surf-and-turf), which he pairs with the region’s famed Priorat wines; the other–canelloni. (OH, you thought that was Italian? Not any more!)

We look on as master chefs roast pigs and lambs, then watch as José prepare the perfect roast rack of lamb. And we meet the Ibérico pig—source of the Ibérico ham that was unavailable in the U.S. until recently, but is now sweeping the nation as the caviar of cold cuts.

José Goes Nuts: Valencia

A return to Valencia makes a star out of the region’s nuts. José whips together a nutty dessert called postre de turrón, then heads to Valencia to show how turrón – a nutty paste – is made, starting with the beautiful almond trees in Jijona and ending in the factories and stores that make and sell this regional Christmastime delicacy. He even visits a horchateria where tiger nuts are made into a creamy drink! There are stops at great wineries along the way, time out to cook up a delicious Valencian noodle dish known as Fideua, and a stop at the wild, fire-filled Valencia Fallas festival. José winds up at one of Spain’s most famed restaurants, El Poblet—where he watches his old friend, chef Quique Dacosta, prepare a dish made with real gold.

Cherries and Cheeses: Extremadura

After cooking two quick tapas – one with a local cheese from Extremadura, the other with the region’s cherries – José makes a sweet escape to the startlingly beautiful cherry fields of Extremadura, meets the cheese makers (and the sheep) responsible for the decadent creamy cheese known as Torta del Casar. After giving a pinch of pimentón—Spanish paprika —to the traditional Extremadura salad known as Cojodongo, José’s inspired to return to the region to visit the fields and factories where the unique sweet and smoky Spanish spice is made. And he reveals why a French culinary tradition must pay thanks to a small monastery here.

A Fairy Tale Come True: Aragón

In the mythical forests of Aragón, a heavenly region almost too beautiful to be real, José is inspired to cook two very earthly regional dishes: Migas, an ancient dish based on breadcrumbs (in this case, paired with mushrooms and serrano ham) and pollo al chilindron, a chicken stew made with a green and red pepper sauce. He returns to Aragón to walk the Pyrenees Mountains, fish for trout, and even hunt for truffles, the old-fashioned way.

While there, of course, José stops off at a great winery and a fabulous restaurant, then ventures on to the island of Lanzarote (but not before creating a superb sancocho–a local version of fish stew).
