Cushuro is a precious algae-like food discovered in the Andean highlands. More than just a local curiosity, it is rich in umami. It is combined with maca root (Lepidium meyenii), wild oca (Oxalis tuberosa), wild cucumber and wild celery, all found in the Peruvian Andes. A tangy leche de tigre sauce full of umami brings the whole dish together.
