Ibiza was inhabited by Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Romans, Moors and Catalonians, among other civilizations, all of whom left their mark in the form of a unique culinary heritage. Despite the passing of centuries and the development of taste preferences and available produce, this legacy is still very much in evidence.<\/p>\n<p>One of our oldest and most emblematic recipes \u2013 arguably the sweet that most faithfully characterizes us \u2013 is <em>fla\u00f3<\/em>, a cheesecake laced with spearmint which is not found outside the Pitiusas. To be sure, there are <em>flaons<\/em> in some of the Catalan provinces, or in areas of Castell\u00f3n, and in Minorca, but they do not look or taste at all like those made on Ibiza.<\/p>\n<p><em>Fla\u00f3<\/em> is part of the triad of classic Ibicenco desserts, along with <em>graixonera<\/em> (bread pudding) and <em>orelletes<\/em> (sugar cakes) \u2013 to which we might also add <em>bu\u00f1uelos<\/em> (sweet fritters). Historians have come across references to<em> fla\u00f3 <\/em>dating back to the 13<sup>th<\/sup> century, when Ibiza was conquered by Catalan Christian forces; but, whoever tries this delicacy will detect a clear Moorish influence, both in its texture and its exotic admixture of spearmint. Its true origin is therefore unknown but unquestionably goes back many centuries.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.estorrent.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/DSC03803.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[17381]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17367\" src=\"https:\/\/www.estorrent.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/DSC03803.jpg\" alt=\"DSC03803\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.estorrent.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/DSC03803.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.estorrent.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/DSC03803-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.estorrent.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/DSC03803-700x467.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Until recent decades, <em>fla\u00f3<\/em> was a special treat eaten on Easter Sunday because that was the time of year when farm fresh cheese was abundantly available and at its peak of creaminess. Today, however, the cake is made throughout the year and can be bought at bakeries across the island. It is very common for Ibicencos, when invited to eat at a friend\u2019s house, to show up with a <em>fla\u00f3<\/em> as a gift.<\/p>\n<p>This sweet is actually more of a pie, with two distinct parts: a baked crust and a filling made of sheep or goat cheese (or a mix of both) and spearmint. Its other ingredients include flour, sugar, lard, lemon zest, orange juice, eggs, cinnamon, a dash of anisette\u2026 Every house has its own recipe.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, the unique taste combination of <em>fla\u00f3<\/em> makes it a dessert that everyone who travels to Ibiza should try.
