Love the stuff my pal from Chile has been sending me this for years 🙂
I really enjoyed your article! Being an American expat living in Chile these past 6 years, I am always on the lookout for interesting info on Chile. Food culture is important to me and my husband being the grandchildren of immigrants and we have had a hard time trying to understand the lack of traditional cuisine in our adopted home country. I really appreciate your comment
“The result was an honest, hearty fare of excellent bread, good potatoes, fresh vegetables, and local meat, all prepared simply and without much spice. Not refined, but good, the sort of food that everyone in society, from president to peasant, could enjoy as equals.”
Well said!
The ingredients here are fabulous and fresh. We eat at home mostly because eating out is almost always disappointing because of the lack of spices and creativity in cooking here. I had not heard the story of the strawberry or the potato though we do enjoy the Chilote potatoes and garlic. I was wondering where you found this information?
I look forward to reading your other articles on Chile!
I am Latin American. You make very strange comments about refined LatinAmericans not liking spicy food. Very strange indeed. Not true! I wonder what strange combo of experiences made you think that.
Wonderful!
