The fifth edition of La cocina popular de Málaga, a book of traditional recipes by Fernando Rueda, has been published as Málaga holds the title of European Capital of Gastronomic Culture, according to a press release from the Ayuntamiento de Málaga (city council).

What the book contains

The council says the work brings together 315 traditional recipes. In its words, the book helps to preserve local produce, culinary customs and the gastronomic memory of the area. The council presents the new edition as a way of highlighting the food heritage of the wider province of Málaga, not only the city.

Who is backing it

According to the press release, the publication has the support of the Ayuntamiento de Málaga and of the Diputación Provincial (the provincial authority), the latter through Sabor a Málaga. Sabor a Málaga is described in the release as the channel for that support. The council places the project within the framework of the 2026-2027 Capitalidad, the gastronomic capital period.

What is not yet clear

The press release material available to us does not give a launch date, venues for any presentation, a price or details of where the book can be bought. Readers interested in the edition should check the Ayuntamiento de Málaga's press page or the Sabor a Málaga channels for further information.
