Part 5/8:
Malaga's culinary scene also includes more than just seafood. The famous jamón ibérico, particularly the jamón de bolota, a cured ham from acorn-fed pigs, showcases the richness of Spanish flavors. When ordering tapas, the petite portions allow patrons to sample a variety without overwhelming their palates.
Cheeselovers will delight in trying local goat and sheep cheeses, including the renowned Manchego. Particularly interesting is how aged cheeses are often drizzled with olive oil to enhance their flavors.
Churros, typically enjoyed in the afternoon, resemble donuts but come in various shapes, often accompanied by a rich hot chocolate or a dipping chocolate. For a distinct snack, indulge in Marcona almonds, a local variant that is salted and fried to perfection.
