PERUVIAN COOKING
Here the people are glad to be Peruvian and part of it is the demonstrations of their seasoning. The generosity techs us, the land has been bringing us all its infinitive delicacies in our hands since many centuries ago. The children learn the colors by seeing the chili and the fruits, and our mothers at home make the kitchen a laboratory of flavors and love. Because all these, I don’t want to say that our country is a very reach place where you can find no end of flavors.
Just I introduce myself. Peru is my name, nice to meet you.
INTRODUCTION
A great cooking and understand the best cuisine is maybe the most widespread costume between Peruvians. We eat everything and in any occasion. When someone is born, when someone dies, when the children become adults, when we want to tell the true or lie, to seduce, to convince or to love. A witness that don’t say nothing, a well-served table.
If sometime you hear a Peruvian say that our cuisine is the best one of the world, remember that we don’t say that because it could be a daring but we can say that two times. It’s true.
Our identity is represented in the cuisine: we are demanding companions at table, and many others, magic chefs. We live the democracy in our tables: there is going to be always a space where a cebiche takes place, a pisco sour or arroz con pato a la chiclayana (duck with rice - chiclayo style dish).
Our capacity to compose ourselfs, we Express it by eating chifa, the name of the Chinese food in Peru. Endless and colorful feasts that demand silence and discipline, mouthful after mouthful allows us to value what really means the diversity we have.
Geography? Eat gentleman, in Peru, is like a trip. We have an amazing Peruvian sea where you can find a ceviche floating, crossing the Andes and the huge diversity of potatoes, even the Amazon, full of an exotic and natural cuisine, we have just one and a great route that makes Peru a unique territory. The route which outlines flavors.
Well, Peru is awarded with amazing lands and seas divinely abundant and Peruvians, for centuries, we have thanked this talent, cooking, eating and creating, like gods do.
It’s a pleasure to introduce it. It is Peru and its flavors that invite you to know it.
