I’m looking for real answers, please. I’m curious about what cooks and ethnic food fans from other countries think. I would like to know what dishes of the following list strike your fancy.
-Pupusas (Stuffed corn or rice tortillas. Stuffed with pork, beans, cheese, shrimp, etc)
-Garrobo (Iguana, usually roasted with white wine and herbs)
-Pacaya (Bitter Palm flowers, fried with batter) -Tamales de elote (tamales made from corn, usually eaten with salvadoran cream)
-Riguas (small sweet corn pies, stuffed with beans or plain)
-Pastelitos de Platano (small plantain balls, stuffed with a milk or beans)
-Leche Poleada (a very thick drink, made of milk, with a rich touch of cinnamon)
-Chile Relleno (similar to the mexican version, only using different types of chiles to stuff and fry in batter)
-Arroz con Leche (similar to rice pudding, but with a very nice touch of cinnamon and more milk)
That’s just a very little bit of my country’s cuisine.
I kinda guessed people would get confused about the pupusas >_<
The fillings are not all added in a single pupusa (Pupusas revueltas do contain 2 or even 3 fillings) but are among the usual fillings, so Pupusas de Queso are filled with cheese, and Pupusas de Frijol are filled with beans. So I guess you can try them, DesiChef. Oh, and you would be amazed at how delicious Garrobo smells when cooked. But I do understand the “yuck-factor” it carries.
