Ik this is probably a joke, but Spanish people definitely don't have that as breakfast

[-] eran_morad@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Pretty sure Spanish breakfast is cigs and coffee.

[-] drekly@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

I'm assuming you're from the UK

[-] interloper@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

100% he is.

[-] HyonoKo@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

More like Spanish brunch. Breakfast is an espresso and a cigarette.

Dude you just insulted all of Spain by using a French stereotype at them

Actually just discovered the world of real (not torrefacto) coffee the other day. No wonder I was not a coffee person all this time...

[-] OhmsLawn@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Twenty-some years ago I spent my first weeks in Spain. The torrefacto (not that I knew the word at the time) always stood out to me as something special, unique. The flavor (along with the shelf-stable milk they used back then) never fails to take me back to those crazy times. Nonetheless, I wouldn't want to drink it for the rest of my life. Coffee has come so far in the last two decades. Your country is ripe to make a jump to exquisite 3rd wave coffee.

I really hope so! Thanks

Real Spanish breakfast is a glass of water and a cigarette but i agree with you

This is what they call in Spain a "tortilla", not to be confused with Mexican tortillas.

Though it seems to be missing ~~green~~ bell peppers.

[-] namelivia@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

What? Green peppers? No please! Spanish omelette only has eggs potato and optionally onion. But no green peppers!

Didn't realize there was singular tortilla recipe that applied to Cataluña, Andalucía, Galicia, Extremadura, the capital and other regions. Guess I'll have to let the Spanish side of my family know.

Just like breakfasts in the US south are indistinguishable from breakfast in the New England States, or Pacific states. /s

[-] namelivia@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The main regional difference is that in the north is delicious, and in the south is overcooked

[-] LordOfTheChia@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Should have said bell peppers. I've always had it with bell peppers.

@LordOfTheChia @rafa

I learned how to make a Spanish tortilla from a Bill Briwa lecture in The Great Courses.

The green peppers are a great idea,
Definitely next time.

[-] yellow_fishtail@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Nah green peppers are not really required for tortilla (although they're probably a good idea!)

[-] kostel_thecreed@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

I’d say it was at a restaurant.
