Berenjenas con Miel de Cana · Granada
Berenjenas con miel de cana are crispy fried aubergine batons drizzled with sugar-cane molasses, a Sephardic-Andalusian Granadina classic on every tapas counter.
Berenjenas con miel is a Sephardic dish that survived the 1492 expulsion and became a Granadina classic, where the molasses (miel de cana) comes from sugar-cane mills on the Costa Tropical south of Granada. The dish is canonical at Bodegas Castaneda and the citys tapeo crawl: aubergine sliced thin, dredged in chickpea flour, fried crisp, then drizzled with cana molasses at the bar. Modern variants use honey but the canonical Granadina version uses miel de cana from the Frigiliana sugar mill.
