In the 1800s, the Spanish diet was largely based on the Mediterranean cuisine, which included staples such as olive oil, bread, wine, and various fruits and vegetables. Common dishes included paella, gazpacho, tortilla española, and various types of cured meats like jamón ibérico. Seafood also played a significant role in Spanish cuisine, with dishes like bacalao (salted cod) being popular. Additionally, the Spanish colonies in the Americas influenced the diet with ingredients like chocolate, tomatoes, and chili peppers being introduced to Spain during this time.
