Is Trempo a popular dish among locals in Mallorca?

Yes. Trempó (Mallorcan: trempó; often spelled trampo in English) is a classic, everyday Mallorcan dish and a summertime staple among locals. It’s a simple salad of ripe tomatoes, green peppers, and onion dressed with olive oil and salt—its name comes from “trempar,” meaning to dress or season. Mallorcans eat it at home, in neighborhood bars, and at beach chiringuitos, and you’ll see it on set menus and as a tapa throughout the island in warm months. Bakeries and markets also sell coca de trempó, a popular flatbread topped with the same mixture. While purists stick to the core three vegetables, local variations may add olives, capers, or tuna. It’s beloved because it’s fresh, cheap, and showcases local seasonal produce. Overall, trempó is considered one of the most typical dishes of Mallorca’s everyday cuisine.
