The tortilla de patata. With onion or without onion. Curd or not curdled. The food par excellence in Spain, and the one that generates the greatest diversity of opinions. Even its origin gives of what to speak. Its uncertain origin is not free of discord, since it is an apocryphal work assigned to General Zumalacarregui in 1835, a Gipuzkoan who asks a Navarrese peasant woman who, with the few ingredients available to her, prepares something quick for him to eat, while he places a spot for Bilbao in the Carlist wars. But it turns out that the Navarrese had already recorded the stew in a letter from Pamplona to his Cortes in 1817 lamenting their poor conditions, and mentioning the mixture of potatoes with eggs since they were staple foods, cheap and easy to obtain.<\/p>\n
