Fabada Asturiana

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fabada Asturiana, often simply known as Fabada, is a rich bean stew, originally from and most commonly found in Asturias, but widely available throughout Spain and in Spanish restaurants world-wide.

Fabada is made with dried large white beans (fabas, soaked overnight before use), shoulder of pork (lacón), black blood sausage (morcilla), spicy sausage (chorizo), saffron (azafrán), and seasonings.

Fabada is a heavy dish and for that reason is most commonly eaten at lunch. Fabada is often served with bread and red wine.
