Spanish cookbook recommendation?
I just got back from southern Spain, where I had marvelous food. Sevilla especially was a great with all of the tapas bars, but I had amazing food even in the small villages. I would really like to learn how to cook Spanish food - does anyone know a good cookbook writer ( in English)

rustic flavors of country cooking in Italy, France, Spain, Morocco and the simple amazing dishes of Asian cuisine. David Tanis, in the US, cooks as I yearn to eat every single day.
What I loved was the seafood, meat, and beans.
I would also love to find a gallacian cookbook because octopus in the gallacian style is one of my absolute favorite dishes. There is this restaurant in Madrid that makes to die for octopus and potatoes with paprika....i make a point of going everytime i am in that city. I am planning to try it at home, but I know nothing about how to cook octopus! I will have to read up about it.

I've had excellent luck ordering from them, and shipping is often free. Be aware, though, that it's not quite as fast as Amazon's shipping.
