RELATED STORY: TYPICAL FOOD IN PERU

 

Ceviche Catering

Indisputably it is the emblematic dish of Peru. To make the most of the extensive coastline of 2,414 km, the chefs marinate fresh seafood such as pejerrey, sea bass, tuna, octopus, sole, black squid or sea urchin, in lemon juice before seasoning them with chili pepper or hot pepper.

 

Anticuchos

The heart of beef is seasoned with garlic, cumin, red pepper and marinade of vinegar, and then placed in a brazier as if it were a shish kebab. They are succulent, soft and have an intense flavor ... the anticuchos are usually served with boiled potatoes. 

 

Nikkei Cuisine

Causa stuffed with chicken

This is another dish that dates from the pre-Columbian era; the causes were traditionally prepared by mixing yellow potatoes with chili. They are almost like a sandwich where potatoes replace bread; the causes are filled with chicken or tuna salad and mayonnaise is added. 


Picarones

Do you need something sweet that gives you energy? These donut-like rings are prepared with sweet potatoes and pumpkin, seasoned with anise and cinnamon and then bathed in fig syrup, passion fruit or sugar cane. It is a deliciously exotic combination that exceeds simple donut rings. 

 

Suspiro Limeño
