La última semana de marzo una delegación de casubios, habitantes de la región de Casubia -en Polonia- que tienen el casubio como idioma, visitaba Baztan gracias a Txikiak Handi, un proyecto permanente del Nafarroa Oinez, con el que se reivindica «la grandeza de las lenguas minorizadas aunque no pequeñas, y asimismo, pretende crear lazos entre ellas».

The author says that cider is probably, after wine, the most popular drink in the Basque Country — which means, if you’re travelling to this corner of Spain and France, you simply can’t leave without trying it at least once (and likely more than once). Truth be told, some foreigners love it, some found it to be, shall we say, a difficult flavour. It’s admittedly an acquired taste, but if you want to do as the locals do, then drink up! A nice article by Tomasz Kolinski on Basque sagardotegiak (cider places) near Donostia-San Sebastian.

Para festejar el Día de la Patria Vasca, integrantes del Centro Vasco Necochea se reunieron ayer frente al retoño del árbol de Guernica en la Plaza Dardo Rocha, donde hubo palabras alusivas a la fecha y bailes típicos de la colectividad. Con la presencia de las banderas de ceremonia, la argentina y la vasca, se celebró un breve acto ayer al mediodía en el que el presidente de la entidad, Antonio Alustiza, recordó el significado de la celebración para los descendientes de vascos que viven en nuestra ciudad.

Autor de una docena de libros, Miguel Larreina González defiende en ‘Laguardia del Viejo Reyno, Baluarte de Navarra y bodega de Alava’ las grandes posibilidades de la Comarca de Laguardia. El enólogo donostiarra llegó en los años 80 a Laguardia, localidad a la que el rey navarro Sancho VI El Sabio otorgó los fueros en el siglo XII, al mismo tiempo que a Vitoria y poco antes de Donostia. Aboga por su puesta en valor.

On Friday, 27 March, Prof. Joseba Gabilondo (Michigan State Univ.) and SPPO's own Ph.D. student Aintzane Cabañes-Martínez, offered their most recent research on contemporary Basque problems and perspectives in Spain. Prior to the two presentations, Prof. Gabilondo offered a screening of the recent box office record-breaking film, Ocho apellidos vascos [Spanish Affair] as a point of departure for his discussion of contemporary Spanish nationalisms and Basque culture.

A CNN video of French top chef Dominique talking about Basque cuisine, Basque Txakoli wine and explaining what Marmitako is while she decides to add her own Californian twist to this Basque fishermen's favourite dish made mainly with very fresh products: tuna and potatoes. It's a 6' 36'' video.

Basque cider has about as much in common with Angry Orchard as Belgian farmhouse ales have with Bud Light. Though the honey-hued hooch is made from apples, it has only a hint of sweetness, a slight fizz and a lingering sour funk. You can buy Basque ciders at the Basque Market year round, but you can also get an authentic Basque cider house, or sagardotegi, experience every fall at Boise's Basque Center. The annual event features a façade made to look like wooden barrels with two spouts streaming Bereziartua Basque cider and classic sagardotegi dishes like Tortilla de Bacalao, salt cod omelets, and Txuleton, rare slices of tender steak.

Henar Chico is a woman from Bilbao (Ortuella) in the Basque Country living for years in Boise, Idaho. She runs the blog A Basque in Boise. Lately she has been asked many times by people willing to rent a room or a house during Jaialdi 2015 (last days of July, first days in August). She doesn´t know anybody in that situation, but trying to help, she created a forum to connect people in Boise willing to host and people that would like to stay in private houses.
