On 26 March 2025 Espasa publishing house organised a press launch of its latest publication: Quisiera crear un jardín (y verlo crecer), a book by Vicente Todolí. It is a very personal reflection on the circumstances and issues that capture his attention and shape both his life and professional trajectory: from Valencia to New York, Porto, London or Milan, discovering artists and organising exhibitions, to return to the fields by the Mediterranean and recover his roots, literally, by discovering the ‘art’ of growing olive and citrus trees. "I like to define this orchard as a museum, as a museum

"I've already built museums for others. This is my museum. Here, there's no need to change the exhibitions because they change on their own," says Vicente Todolí as he walks among citrus trees, from citrons, limes, and grapefruits to mandarins,

Media: Levante Original title: El 'Autorretrato' de Todolí Author: Amparo Barbeta Date: 26 de marzo 2025 Vicent Todolí, former head of exhibitions at IVAM, confesses in Quisiera crear un jardín (y verlo crecer) that he created the Todolí Citrus Fundació to ‘stop an urban development plan’. An orchard that, he considers, ‘can be an example of how to alleviate the abandonment of land with varieties destined for small markets’. This small agricultural space, or better to call it a paradise, is in Palmera, some five kilometres from Gandía and seventy from Valencia. A 45,000-metre orchard where guided tours are

Citrus Gildas_Recipe

The Gilda is a popular pintxo from San Sebastián, typically served at bar counters and known as the perfect companion to a glass of vermouth. There are several theories about the origin of its name, but the most iconic links it to Rita Hayworth’s visit to the San Sebastián Film Festival in 1950. At the time, she had just starred in Gilda, the role that made her a symbol of sensuality for an entire generation. Like the character, the Gilda is bold, intense, and full of personality—always green, salty, and with a spicy kick. Many versions have appeared over time,

Torrija of Lumia from Valencia _ Recipe from El Poblet Restaurant

Cristina2025-06-12T18:01:58+02:00

The origin of torrijas is traditionally associated with a humble dish made from leftovers, whose base —in its most popular version— consists of stale bread soaked in milk, battered and fried. Its antecedent could go back to Ancient Rome, where a similar sweet called aliter dulcia was prepared, a recipe found in the Apicius, a 4th-century cookbook. The torrija made with Lumia is a contemporary reinterpretation, the result of the creative vision of chef Luis Valls, head chef at El Poblet (two Michelin stars). During a visit to Todolí Citrus Fundació, Valls listened attentively when the president of the Foundation,
