- The CALCOTADA is an ancient Catalonian ritual based upon "les cebes blanques" or possibly leeks in ceremonial and traditional canon having its roots in old Roman lore "principalment pe les seves virtuts medicinals i afrodisiaques." On a recent trip to the countryside of Catalonia, our host and hostess introduced us to "el secret d'una bona colcatada." Fresh green leeks, stem to root, were roasted over hardwood open fires. The blackened leeks were served up on long red spanish roof tiles. The diner, properly attired in a sparkling white bib-type apron, grasps the warm leafy plant and peels back the blackened outer leaves of the leek, exposing the soft sweet white leek bulb. Discarding the black peels, the diner swishes the leek about in the sauce, and holding the leek high, lowers the delightful bulb into his waiting mouth, whence he bites it free and masticates it and its delicious stem.
- The apron protects the diner's clothing from the dripping oils and black ashes.
- This treat is best abetted by country wine served in shepherd's flasks, side dishes of black and green olives, breads, hard cheeses, smoked ham, peanuts and chips. Enjoy; be careful.
