The menestra de verduras (a mix of vegetables cooked with little pieces oh Spanish ham, onion, garlic and spices) is also very well-known and tasty.
Palencia also offers a great assortment of lettuces, leeks, wild

Morcilla is a pigs-blood sausage, a staple country food famous
across the Iberian peninsula. Spiced with onions and herbs its most

Despite being an inland province, fish is quite commonly consumed.
Brought from the Cantabrian Sea, fish like red bream and hake are a
