Image of Peralta/Azkoien, not of the place itself.

Peralta grows cardoon, with a red variety for salad and another for cooking, and pimientos cucones, similar to the piquillo pepper but green, milder, and easier to digest, served with oil, salt, and raw garlic; the town has dedicated its own fair to the cardoon in early March since 2020.
