Bolivia with a bite


Hola,

Bolivia! It has always appealed to me since hearing from my aunty and uncle about their travels there. A mountainous country known for their llamas the country does have interesting cuisine. My aunt and uncle ate guniea pig and also had a photo of a roasted pigs head with the typical apple in the mouth.

However, I wasn’t going to be that adventurous. I don’t think walking into the pet shop to ask for two plump guniea pigs, preferably about 500 grams worth, would have ended well. In any case, the recipe was Guisode Carne, a soupy stew, or maybe a stewy soup. Never the less, the recipe may contain some tainted influences as it contains pasta. I doubt that an authentic recipe would contain pasta since Italy is quite some way from Bolivia.



In any case, the result was a nice soup with a bite. It was hot and accompanied with a lot of water but quite tasty.

Adios
