Suspiro de Limeña
Suspiro de limeña is one of Peru’s most iconic desserts: rich, silky manjar at the base, topped with a cloud of port wine Italian meringue.
Pan de Yema
Few things bring back the comforting feeling of home quite like the aroma of freshly baked bread.
Peruvian Pan de Molde (Sandwich Bread)
There’s something incredibly satisfying about baking your own sandwich bread, and this Peruvian pan de molde is one of my absolute favorites: soft, fluffy, buttery, and perfect for everything from breakfast toast to sandwiches… and of course, the classic Triple Peruano! Thanks to bread flour and proper kneading, the loaf stays soft while being sturdy enough to hold your favorite fillings.
Milhojas
Milhojas means “a thousand leaves,” and this dessert lives up to its name with crisp, flaky layers and a sweet, creamy filling.
Arroz con Pollo
Arroz con pollo shows up at Peruvian family tables again and again, and for good reason.
Peruvian Tamales
In Peru, tamales are a weekend breakfast favorite, often served with salsa criolla and a warm cup of coffee.
Ají de Gallina
Ají de gallina is pure Peruvian comfort: tender shredded chicken in a silky, golden sauce made with ají amarillo.
Arroz Chaufa (Peruvian Fried Rice)
Arroz chaufa is Peru’s take on fried rice, born in the Chinese-Peruvian kitchen we call chifa.
