Two ''potaje'' courses were also served for fish days, first high-quality spinach from the ] gardens topped with peppers, or cabbage or lettuce (if spinach could not be found), followed by either a bowl of ] or noodles or rice cooked in ], or a grain bowl of semolina ] seasoned with cinnamon.<ref>{{cite book |title=Pedralbes |publisher=Universidad de Barcelona |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=BDF9IlUOaP8C&pg=PA96}}</ref> | |||
