Learn how to make my mom’s empanadas from my mom! For the filling: onions, garlic, green peppers, ground beef, cheddar cheese and olives, in that order. Stay tuned for how to fill and cook the dough!
Awesome! My mom is from Bolivia and their version is called a saltena: ground beef, onions, black olives, hard-boiled eggs, diced peas & carrots, and (I know, it sounds crazy) raisins. They are so delicious! I love empanadas of any kind. We even had mini empanadas at our wedding, filled with manchego and membrillo. Yum!
Some of my first memories are of food. Those and the new food and wine memories that I make keep me happy, make me laugh and make me feel connected. Through sharing food and wine I feel most myself and most alive and my hope is that you feel that too. I'm originally from NY, but I'm a West Coast transplant and I like to think I have the best of both coasts in me. That means I love bagels and avocados, lobsters and oysters, and wine from…well wine from just about everywhere.
