Peruvian food

Peru has a strong reputation for it’s cuisine. So it only seemed right that Lima was a good place to try some local dishes and for me (Helen) to do another cooking class.

Two classic dishes are:
Causa - a potato based dish layered with chicken, fish or seafood
Ceviche - cured fish or seafood

Yesterday after our walking tour we sampled both these dishes and they were delicious. Later that evening we ate at a local Peruvian restaurant.

Then today I took a cooking course and learned how to make Causa and Ceviche, along with Pisco Sour. Pisco is a grape brandy (both Peru and Chile claim to have been the first to make it) and Pisco Sour is a cocktail made from this.

I think we could find all the ingredients at home so you may get to try these dishes for yourself!Baca lagi
