Think mayonnaise is French? Think again! In this episode of Poco A Poco, we uncover its tasty Spanish backstory on the island of Menorca, where “mahonesa” was born during the 18th-century siege of Port Mahon. From classic mayonesa to its garlicky cousin alioli, we explore how these sauces became staples of Spanish kitchens and tapas tables. Join us for a fun dive into food history, regional twists, and the Spanish side of the world’s favorite condiment.
