Coffee and Crumpets - Real Food with Altitude
When most of us think of empanadas, we imagine little sweet pastry parcels filled with luscious fruit, dusted with powdered sugar and served with a dollop of snowy white whipped cream. At least, this is what has been served up to us; from various South American and Mexican restaurants to fast food joints. When I was in the process of making these wonderful pies, even my children were surprised when I told them “empanadas.” It seems here in the US, the only empanadas we know well are the little ones, sometimes savoury but mostly sweet.
What a delightful discovery it was when I learnt that empanadas are not always little, and not always sweet; thanks to the Daring Bakers Challenge this month.
