Disclaimer

Read before you light the stove

Editorial content only

Everything published on Gornio Cociña, every recipe, note and description, is informational and cultural writing about traditional Galician cooking. It is offered for general interest and home use, and for no other purpose.

Not nutritional or medical advice

Nothing on this site is nutritional counselling, dietary therapy or medical advice, and nothing here should be read as a claim that any dish, ingredient or cooking fat will improve, protect or affect your health. Our editorial preference for traditional fats such as olive oil, butter, lard and unto reflects culinary tradition and flavour, not a clinical recommendation. Decisions about what you should or should not eat belong with you and, where relevant, with a qualified professional who knows your situation.

Allergies, intolerances and restrictions

Recipes on this site involve common allergens including nuts, eggs, dairy, gluten, fish and shellfish. Always read the full ingredient list before cooking, check labels on everything you buy, and consult a professional if you manage an allergy, an intolerance, or a restricted diet of any kind. When cooking for guests, ask.

Your kitchen, your judgment

Ovens run hot and cold, pans differ, altitude matters and octopus does not follow instructions. Times, temperatures and yields given here are honest guides from our own testing, not promises of your result. Use ordinary care with heat, knives and raw ingredients, and cook meat, fish and eggs to temperatures you consider safe. Responsibility for safe food handling in your kitchen rests with you.

Accuracy and corrections

We test and edit with care, yet errors can slip through. Content is provided in good faith, without warranties as to completeness or accuracy, and may be updated, corrected or removed at any time without notice. If you spot a mistake, we genuinely want to know.
