Tapas of yesteryear from Blanca (Murcia); belonging to the Morish Ricote region that Cervantes described in Don Quijote II in 1615

Many years have passed since my arrival in Blanca in 1969, and the advantage of this is that I learn more about this village every day. This time I will talk about Blanca's various tapas. I have collected 128 tapas and tried to omit the most modern tapas. Whether I succeeded in this is for the connoisseurs to decide.

A word of thanks goes to a former resident of Blanca, Mariano Cano Talavera who assisted and advised. I also thank my wife Piedad who, born and raised in Blanca, knows a lot about tapas.
