Spain
Stuffed peppers or pimientos rellenos are part of the traditional Spanish cuisine, especially that of the regions of the Basque Country and Catalonia. Usually piquillo peppers are used. The fillings vary from Manchego cheese, to beef or cod in a béchamel sauce, the latter likely being the most popular recipe.

“How the devil am I to prove to my counsel that I don’t know my murderous impulses through C.G. Jung, jealousy through Marcel Proust, Spain through Hemingway ...
