  • About

I have in my home a person who can eat more empanadas than anyone else in the world: my husband. We used to sit beside the pool at the club in his hometown of Cali, and order so many empanadas they even prepared the ají especially for him. They are a staple in his diet on weekends. These empanadas can be served with any of the ajíes from the Salsas and Sauces chapter as well as with lime wedges. They are sold frozen in supermarkets
