The white pepper of Oímbra (Ourense) also has its gastronomic exaltation and recognition as a Galician tourist interest festival. A popular meal in the Carballeira, on the first Sunday of August. Although the main attraction of the fair is the meal, where locals and visitors enjoy both white peppers and meat, empanada, or octopus, the atmosphere is lively from the early hours, with contests of dishes made with white pepper, free tastings of peppers, exhibitors selling artisanal products, agricultural products and tools, folk performances, and even inflatables for children.
