The gastronomy of Yepes reflects the rich culinary tradition of Castilla-La Mancha, with local varieties of typical dishes of the region.
Typical dishes include traditional Manchegan recipes such as gachas (also called puches), pisto manchego and migas de pastor. Lamb is the protagonist, either roasted or in stew, along with poultry. Rabbit also stands out, prepared with garlic or stewed with potatoes.
Other local dishes are the galiano (gazpacho manchego), chicken in pepitoria, potatoes a la campera with rabbit or hare, callos a la yepera and many other recipes.
The confectionery has Arab influence, with specialties such as sweet hornazos, almond soups and turcos (a local specialty of marzipan). Finally, it is common to taste the limoncillo, a local liqueur made with lemon and brandy.
