LANDALUZ stores offer the very best Mediterranean Diet quality

For more than fifteen years, LANDALUZ—Association of Quality Food Products within Andalusia—has been working hard to undertake promotional activities that allow the Andalusian , agri-bbusiness sector to develop in the various commercial channels existent in Spain.

With this goal in mind, LANDALUZ, always backed by its most faithful participants in this project have decided to sponsor a solid and long-term project such as CARREFOUR, AUCAHN – ALCAMPO, EL CORTE INGLÉS Group or METRO – MAKRO, thanks to which, LANDALUZ has consolidates as one of the most dynamic and representative business organizations in Spain in terms of commercial promotion. Nevertheless, the Association must not cease in the intensity of its activities after having consolidates its national business, in which actions have continued for more than ten consecutive years. There must be continued growth, but always hand in had with strategic allies, and with a clear objective: internationalization of the Andalusian agri-business industry.

This objective responds to a clear vocation and at the same time, an imperious need to prove to the international market the obvious quality of the Andalusian agri-business production, where food safety, R+D+i+Marketing, Mediterranean diet or healthiness are synonymous to a job well done.

That is why LANDALUZ has always worked hand in hand with EXTENDA (the Andalusian Agency for Promotion Abroad) as a public organization within the Andalusian government to compete in this field. Right from the very beginning, we saw the need to adapt to the needs of our clients abroad; these actions require

on the target market. Major hypermarket chains asked for simplification in LANDALUZ project as well as simplicity and that promotional activities would not interfere with daily tasks. The Association has adapted perfectly to this demand.

LANDALUZ came up with a pioneering system in Spain for international business called “Turn-key Promotions.”

Turn-kkey Promotions

The goal of the Association is to simplify procedures so that promotional activities are as simple as possible for all those involved. Therefore, LANDALUZ, has designed what is called “turn-key promotions” in which the business association works as the sole supplier. Thus, LANDALUZ handles all the logistics of the orders for the producers, serves the good to the designated point, collects the invoice according to the agreed to conditions and pays the manufacturers and/or producers participating in the promotion.

In other words, the fact that there is only one main spokesperson for all the companies facilitates the organization of promotional activities. Thus, the chain need only register one supplier during the LANDALUZ promotion, with the references that the chain

Delicate, pleasant, simple to use, succulent, easy to find… since rice started growing on the Iberian Peninsula, brought here almost 13 centuries ago by the Arabs, this cereal has won the hearts of humankind thanks to its virtues. Rice, in other cultures traditionally dismissed as a necessary companion at every meal, in Spain reaches new levels of use as it is transformed into the central axis of many of our stews and in an indispensable element of our pantries.

Rice is not only one of the most important cereals, but one of the world’s main staples. For hundred of millions of people, rice plays the same role as bread for Westerners, being the second most produced cereal in the world. Some 600 million tons are produced annually; a figure similar to that of the other major cereals used for human consumption such as wheat and corn. Rice constitutes the basic diet of about 40 countries and some 1,800 million people. At the same time, it has become the fundamental axis of numerous cultures and traditions throughout the planet.

In Europe, is the largest rice producer with 1.4 million tons per year while Spain produces 0.9 million tons. However, if you had to highlight a rice production location in Spain’sgeography, it would be Sevilla, the capi- tal of Andalusia. This Spanish province dedicates 36,000 hectares to rice, most of which is concentrated around Isla Mayor, Los Palacios and Villafranca, and La Puebla del Río, with a completely integrated production system that is as close as possible to an organic product.. This rice production generates between 400,000 and 500,000 workdays per year. Rice is decisive for all over the world Andalusian Rice

Since the beginning of time, legumes (beans) have been associated, together with cereals, with the initial symbols of humankind’s gastronomy, which until then, was limited to eating wild fruits and when possible, roast game on the fire.

From the Egyptian civilization until today, the presence of chickpeas and lentils have been a constant in our diets. From the New World, white and red beans were later incorporated into the group. It wasn’t long before they became a staple in Mediterranean cuisine.

In nutritional terms, beans are an important food group. Historically, Mediterranean diet the various beans have been an outstanding part of Andalusian and Spanish cuisine, within the traditional Mediterranean diet.

Until the sixties, in most Spanish homes, legumes were eaten daily. Due to social-cultural aspects, consumption has reduced slowly until now it is almost nonexistent in certain areas. Today, its excellent features as a healthy food within the concept of a Mediterranean diet have been underscored and, given its easy conservation in the refrigerator and heating in the microwave, it is appearing on dinner tables in Spain once again. In nutritional terms, both beans and peas are a complete food source. Thanks to the facility with which they combine with other foods, and their easy conservation and storage, they have become an extremely functional ingredient that must not be overlooked by any good cook.

Traditionally, the most commonly used legumes include: lentils, chickpeas and white or pinto beans. Also included in this group are lima beans and dried peas.

Changes in eating habits and the fact that these ingredients are part of the well-regarded Mediterranean diet have allowed them to be adapted to new demands in cuisine. They are beginning to appear as essential ingredients in refreshing seasonal salads that help combat the high summer temperatures.

Moreover, legumes, from lentils to beans, without forgetting chickpeas, contain large amounts of proteins, carbohydrates, mineral salts and vitamins, which are all essential in a healthy and well-balanced diet. essential ingredients in the Legumes,

Aracena is a peaceful place, ideal for walking through narrow stone streets, buying beautiful ceramic objects, listening to the constant and uninterrupted sound of its fountains, breathing fresh air and escaping the noisy hustle and bustle of city life for a few days. Aracena helps travellers feel at peace as they refresh with nature and their own spirit.

Nestled in foothill of the same name is the town of Aracena, a rural setting with escarpments, and a number of hidden treasures.The Sierra of Aracena is well-known, not only for its attractive heritage, both historical and natural, but also for the greatest of the elements that make up its gastronomy: the ham. There, where the interior of the mountain can be seen to be as beautiful as the beautiful land Aracena,

ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR 45 the landscape, there are numerous possibilities, both for a young trekker, who can spend the night at a camping site, and for the more demanding travellers, housed in any one of the exclusive properties that are plentiful in the area.

Aracena and the surrounding area have been inhabited since the dawning of time. From the 3rd millennium B.C. there are the remains of lithic (stone) workshops in the Cueva de la Umbría (Caves). There are remains of the town of Castañuelo, which date back to the middle of the 2nd millennium, and also of the Celtic culture that settled in the area in the 5th century B.C. From the remains uncovered, it is known that in addition to agriculture, these people worked metal.

In the first century, the Romans settled to exploit its mines. They used a system of small agricultural settlements to sustain the establishment and this was, probably the origin of Aracena and of several of the towns of the area.

At the end of the 15th century, Aracena was the most populated town in the province of Huelva. The city is presided by high knoll known as Cerro del Castillo. It was built in the 13th century over an old Muslim fortress. According to some specialists it is probable that it had links with the Templars, although it also appears to have belonged to the Caballeros de la Orden de Santiago (Knights of the Order of St. James). A labyrinth of passageways, lakes and walls inundated with stalactites and stalagmites lie under the knoll. This is the Gruta de las Maravillas (Grotto of the Marvels), of which somewhat more than 1,000 meters of pathways, conditioned with lights, music and colour, are open to the public. Also interesting are the Mining Museum and the Museum of Contemporary Sculptures, which are outdoors. Equally interesting are the Fuente de la Zulema (Zulema fountain), or the start (headwaters) of the river Odiel, in Marimateos.

Popular tradition goes on to say that its discoverer was a shepherd who went into the woods in search of a strayed animal… History grants the merit to the mine engineer Gonzalo Tarín, who, in one of his works referred to the Gruta de las Maravillas. When it comes to describing the cavern, tradition and legend shake hands: the whiteness and brilliance captivated the mine engineer as well as the shepherd. The latter, according to legend –called the entrance that he used to the grotto “Pozo de las Nieves” (the Snow Well). Today, part of that tradition has become reality, and the road on which the entrance to the grotto lies has inherited the mentioned name.

After the shepherd and mining engineer, in 1911, the Marquee of Aracena an Juan Cid, Town Mayor launched the tourist industry at the time. After the initial work, the Gruta de las Maravillas opened the first route to the public in 1914; in 1927, after other rooms had been discovered, the tourist route was expanded. de las Maravillas, Three levels

Located in the very centre of Aracena, to the northeast of the province of Huelva, the Gruta de las Maravillas is 89 kilometres from Sevilla and some 70 from Portugal. Water falling on the Cerro del Castillo (Castle Hill) and the subsequent erosion originated a cavity that holds a variety of formations: vertical and eccentric stalactites, stalagmites, castings, plain curtains, aragonites and coralloid. This horizontal area is differentiated by three levels of overlapping galleries. The underground complex has a know length of 2,130 meters, of which only 1,200 are open to the public.

It is from here that a most enchanting into the depths of the Cerro del Castillo begins; it takes an hour to contemplate the lakes, walk through eternal spaces and see the various whims of Mother Nature. From the entrance hall, one goes down the stairs to enjoy – thanks to the perspective offered from aloft- the Sala de las Conchas (the Shell Room). A small gallery leads to the Salón de los Brillantes (Diamond Room). A small staircase leads to the Salón del Gran Lago (the Great Lake Room). Later, the grotto gives way to other rooms such as La Esmeralda (the Emerald), La Cristalería de Dios (God´s Glassware) or Los Desnudos (The Naked).

Manuel Lombo is a small man, who when speaking, fails to provide any indications of his powerful signing voice; a voice that has been defined by experts as baroque or wooden. In spite of his tender age (he is only 26 years old), Lombo has taken the essence and the art of Andalusia, Flamenco, to stages all over the world, the most important being the Metropolitan of New York City. His years at the Cristina Heeren Flamenco Foundation have marked his career; nonetheless he feels a debt towards the founder, a woman in love with Andalusia, who has become his Lombo sponsor. Almost ready to release his first album, Manuel Lombo, only aspires to have a place in music. Keep an eye on him, because, without a doubt, much will be said about him.

Music is the universal language; do you believe that this is a good way to define flamenco? Yes, I believe that with flamenco even more, since it is a pure and direct transmission of feelings. The “cantes” or songs always express different emo- tions, depending even on the “palo” or style; some cantes appear to be more sorrowful, tragic and others joyful; I think it would be a good definition, in fact when we go abroad, people without even understanding the language feel the emotion.

Is flamenco well understood outside Spain? Apart from performing at the Metropolitan of New York City, I have traveled around the world since I was 13 and I have been in a number of odd places for flamenco, like the case of Albania, but in all the places I have been I have had the same reception, Manuel

In 1993, Cristina Heeren (New York, 1943) created in the capital of Andalusia, Sevilla, a Foundation dedicated solely to the preservation and dissemination of Flamenco in all its forms.The Cristina Heeren Flamenco Foundation was created in order to promote the knowledge, study, teaching and dissemination of flamenco from its legitimate Andalusian roots.

The Cristina Heeren Foundation School of Flamenco Art is the only centre in the world that offers the possibility of training professionally in the three specializations of Flamenco: singling, dancing and guitar. Orthodoxy and precision preside over the didactical philosophy.

Although it is essential that the technique of flamenco dominate lessons, artistic sensibility is no less important. Teachers at the Foundation are valuable not only for their skills based upon the highest standards in Flamenco, but also for their search for personal expression within each and every student.

For the Foundation, Flamenco is the result of a long cultural process that must be sought throughout popular Andalusian history and literature, from the anthropological, ethnographic and sociological perspectives; therefore, the Foundation has a complete library and archives where students and researchers the world over can consult the specialized bibliography on Flamenco and Andalusia. www.flamencoheeren.com Heeren Flamenco Foundation

This means that the business model launched in 1959 in the Los Pedroches area of the province of Cordoba—livelihood of a good many families in the area—will cease to be a cooperative to become a corporation. At the same time, a more flexible structure will be created—industrial cooperation—to take charge of handling both the commercial and industrial assets of the corporation.
