RE: ADSactly Food: Typical Venezuelan Food III
Creo que se te pasó la mano esta vez con tantas delicias en una sola foto! :)
Amazing array of delicious dishes.
It's good to be reminded of how rich our cuisine is.
I love all the dishes based on corn. From the boiled corn to the cachapas.
One thing I have not eaten in a while is the corn cooked/roasted on fogón, a wood fire. It's delicious, but there is not a single place in Cumaná where that is served as a meal.
When I was little and we did not have gas stoves, we cooked on wood fire. After the main meal was done, we'd use the embers to cook corn. Fond memories,
They're a delight! I remember when we used to go to my grandfather's farm and eat roasted corn. I also remember eating something called Mazamorra, a kind of corn food. Delicious. Also what they call "harinita" of peeled corn that we accompanied with sugar. Times that won't come back. ;)
OH, YES! I loved those ones too. I don't know anyone in this city who prepares mazamorra. They prepared it with the juice you get from the green cord while they are being ground. Harinita is easier to get everywhere.
Those are the tastes/flavors of ourchidlhood
