Cazón en Adobo
Andalusian dogfish marinated with vinegar, garlic and spices, then floured and fried.
About Cazón en Adobo
Cazón en Adobo is an Andalusian tapa of marinated and fried dogfish, especially associated with Cádiz. This profile follows the vinegar-led version commonly known locally as adobo or bienmesabe.
Sherry vinegar gives the fish a clean tang, while garlic, paprika, cumin, oregano and bay build a warm aromatic marinade. Dogfish stays mild and meaty beneath the seasoned flour crust.
The pieces are compact and golden, with a thin dry shell around pale, moist fish. Their crisp surface gives way to firm, tender flakes carrying the marinade's red-gold colour and sharp fragrance.
