The upcoming days hold a special charm, moments when the calendar and our hearts remind us to remember, gather together, and celebrate. October wraps us in warm colors and cozy scents, bringing along traditions that feel like an embrace for our loved ones, those who are still with us and those who have left. In Spain, the All Saints' Day is a call to reunite, to sit around the table, and share memories. Meanwhile, the Castañada invites us to roast chestnuts, prepare sweets like panellets, and fill our kitchens with those smells that seem to bring back a piece of childhood and home. Additionally, Halloween, which has gained more presence over time, arrives with a touch of magic and fun, inherited from the US, where pumpkins, decorations, and candies also take center stage. So today, we want to share some recipes that will make these days completely sweet. Panellets, caramelized apples, wind bunuelos, and bones of saints. Let's cook and celebrate the best of this season! Because the true essence of these days lies in gathering, remembering, and sharing, both in the kitchen and with our hearts. ### Panellets of Almond and Pine Nuts The panellets are one of the most representative sweets of the Castañada. Made from ground almond and topped with pine nuts, coconut, or cocoa, they’re perfect to accompany a sweet wine or muscatel. #### Ingredients: - 500g ground almond - 400g sugar - 150g cooked sweet potato or mashed potato - 2 eggs - Lemon zest - Pine nuts, grated coconut, or cocoa (for topping) #### Preparation: 1. Cook the sweet potato or mashed potato until soft, then mash it into a puree. 2. Mix the ground almond, sugar, and lemon zest. Add the puree and mix until you get a homogeneous dough. 3. Form small balls and decorate them with pine nuts, coconut, or cocoa. 4. Brush the balls with beaten egg and bake at 180°C for 10-12 minutes until golden. ### Wind Bunuelos The wind bunuelos are typical of many regions in Spain. These fried dough bites, often filled with cream, chocolate, or whipped cream, symbolize the tradition of "freeing souls from purgatory" with each bunuelo eaten. They're light and fluffy, perfect with coffee. #### Ingredients: - 125ml water - 125ml milk - 100g butter - 150g flour - 4 eggs - A pinch of salt - Oil for frying - Sugar for dusting - Cream, whipped cream, or chocolate for filling (optional) #### Preparation: 1. In a pot, heat the water, milk, butter, and salt. When it boils, add the flour and stir vigorously until you get a thick dough. 2. Remove from heat and add the eggs one by one, mixing well until the dough is homogeneous. 3. Heat oil in a pan and fry small portions of dough until the bunuelos are golden and puffed. 4. Let cool and sprinkle with sugar. If desired, fill them with cream, whipped cream, or chocolate. ### Bones of Saints The bones of saints are another traditional sweet of All Saints’ Day. Made from marzipan and filled with yolk, cream, or chocolate, their elongated shape resembles small "bones," paying homage to our loved ones who have passed away. #### Ingredients: - 200g ground almond - 200g icing sugar - 100ml water - Yolk, cream, or chocolate for filling #### Preparation: 1. Mix the icing sugar with the ground almond and gradually add water to form a marzipan dough. 2. Roll out the dough and cut long strips, then form small cylinders resembling bones. 3. Fill with yolk, cream, or chocolate. ### Caramel Apples Caramel apples are a classic of Halloween. This sweet combines the crunch of fresh apple with the smoothness of caramel, and can be decorated with sprinkles, nuts, etc. #### Ingredients: - 4-5 green apples (like Granny Smith) - 1 cup of sugar - 1/4 cup of water - 1/2 cup of whipping cream - A pinch of salt - Skewers #### Preparation: 1. Wash and dry the apples thoroughly and insert a skewer into each. 2. In a saucepan, heat the sugar and water over medium heat until a golden caramel forms. 3. Remove from heat and add the cream and salt, mixing well. 4. Dip each apple in the caramel and let cool on parchment paper. Ultimately, gather your loved ones, try these recipes, and celebrate life while honoring the memory of those who are no longer with us.
