Chicutos from Mistela
Mistela chicutos: small traditional pastries with a sweet flavor and delicate aroma that evoke the flavors of yesteryear and the simplicity of home cooking in Linares de Mora.
The "chicutos de mistela" from Linares de Mora (Teruel) are small traditional pastries associated with the local cuisine of this town in the Gúdar-Javalambre region, in inland Aragón.
Their name refers to their small size—“chicutos,” in local vernacular, means “small”—and to mistela, a sweet drink traditionally made from grape must and wine alcohol.
From a gastronomic perspective, they can be described as sweet, humble, and traditional treats, handmade and deeply rooted in the culinary heritage of the mountain villages of Teruel.
