Chile - the country of the High Andes has gathered a colorful palette of culinary traditions. Traces were left first by the indigenous population - the Araucano Indians, and then the Spanish colonizers.
With the colonization of the continent came wheat, pigs, cows, chickens. At this time, the table offers dishes such as humitas - boiled corn pate wrapped in corn leaves, lokro - stewed meat with vegetables, charikan - smoked roast meat with vegetables. Also very popular, although strange to our taste, are seaweed dishes kochmayuyo.
Subsequently, the cuisines of France, England, Germany and Italy influenced the cuisine. It is in Chilean cuisine from all over Latin America that European influence is most felt. But of course the unique charm of this country is mainly due to the local dishes according to ancient recipes.
Along the coast of Chile there is a huge and unique, specific only for these latitudes, a variety of marine species. Therefore, we can rightly say that here are offered the most delicious seafood dishes in the world.
The most popular are: thick soup called mariscal, ceviche - marinated chilled fish, manchas ala parmesan - meat ragout and crab baked in parmesan. The seafood ragout also has incredible taste.
In addition to seafood, Chileans also pay due attention to meat. Particular attention and love is paid to chicken. Here we can give an example of the popular casuela de ave - chicken soup with various spices, rice and potatoes.
Beef is used to make lomo ala pobre - a large piece of meat with two eggs, fried on top with a garnish of french fries, pastel di chocolate - casserole with chicken and minced meat, pika with marjoram - fried meat with vegetables.
Another dish with exceptional taste is pariyada - a mix of grilled animal trifles. Another favorite national dish is the thick curanto soup, made from fish, seafood, chicken, pork and potatoes. And empanadas pies with a variety of fillings are known around the world.
It should be noted that every dish in this amazing country comes with a bottle of amazing Chilean wine. Local wines are recognized as the highest quality wines in all of South America. The pisco-sur cocktail, which is also emblematic for the country, would bring us real pleasure and enjoyment.
