Peruvian Cuisine

Peru · South America · 4 recipes

Peru is the original home of the potato — it has thousands of varieties, and from here it spread to the rest of the world. Peruvian cooking is a rare blend: an ancient Inca base, with Japanese, Chinese and Italian immigrants leaving their mark, which produced a cuisine that uses lime, yellow chilli and corn like no other.
