History of Spanish Food

Endless cultures, as they passed through or settled in Spain, have
influenced the history of Spanish food. The Phoenicians left their
sauces, the Greeks introduced Spain to the wonders of olive oil, and
Romans, Carthaginians, and Jews integrated elements of their own
cooking into that of Spain. However it was the Moors who, during
their centuries of reign, most impacted Spanish gastronomy. They
introduced fruits and light seasonings into the Iberian diet, as well
as combinations of fruits and nuts with meats and fish. Rice is a
genuine staple of Spanish gastronomy and therefore Spain’s vast
array of rice dishes, come straight from the Moors, as does the use of
saffron, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
