Leonor decides to break the silence about her sister Sofía: 'She found out'

Leonor and Sofía are sisters in whom, usually, signs of great closeness can be observed. Sometimes, just a gesture or a well-chosen phrase is enough to strengthen the bond they share. When one grows up surrounded by protocols and spotlights, small gestures take on special meaning.

Princess Leonor has shown this with a confession that has captured everyone's attention. It happened at a public event, and her sister Sofía was surprised by an unexpected confession.

A flavor that made the difference

During a speech at the Princess of Asturias Awards, Leonor made a revelation that surprised people with its warmth. She spoke about the memories she keeps from the region: "I became fond of oricios in front of my sister's surprised face... Well, it's just that she's more into pantrucu." She said it with a smile, referring to the well-known regional blood sausage.

Infanta Sofía, unlike her sister, seems to have discovered a very special taste in that dish. "Both of us have been very happy here," Leonor added, highlighting the strong emotional bond with the area. Meanwhile, also the symbolic weight of its traditions.

Pantrucu: tradition at the table and in the heart

This traditional sausage is made with pork blood, onion, corn flour, and spices, cooked or roasted depending on the area. Its history is linked to local festivals and rural Asturian cuisine. Now, thanks to Sofía, it has also reached the table at Zarzuela.

Despite its hearty character, it has several nutritional benefits. Its protein and iron content is especially relevant for those seeking energy and strength. In addition, it contains zinc and phosphorus, essential minerals to keep bones and the immune system strong.

More than a dish, an emotional bond

Pantrucu is not just a recipe; it also connects Sofía with her mother's homeland. According to experts, this type of dish strengthens emotional well-being and creates deep connections with identity. In a family with such clearly defined institutional roles, this doesn't go unnoticed.

Although Leonor prefers different flavors, both sisters share something beyond tastes. The natural way the heiress shared this anecdote reveals genuine affection and a touching closeness. Sofía discovered a dish with which she created an unforgettable family memory, making pantrucu a taste of Asturias at any table, even the royal one.
