VOLUME I 

CULINARY BIOGRAPHIES, NATIONAL DISHES

The Venezuelan Hallaca

The hallaca is, without a doubt and par excellence, our great national dish. Its colonial origins must be traced back, to a greater or lesser degree of kinship, to polenta and pastel. Like both, it is a complicated culinary combination, heterogeneous in its components.

The Arepa Criolla

Like casabe, with which it shares immense popularity, the arepa is clearly indigenous. To make it, the Indians pounded the corn previously soaked, between two stones, and then spread small discs of dough on round clay plates heated in the fire.

The Caracas Pavilion

Caracas has a typically popular meal, the pavilion. To structure it, the black beans, the innocent white rice and the pleasant fried shredded meat come together in a close relationship. If served on a plate, slices of ripe plantain, conveniently fried, are placed around it…

The Christmas Stuffed Turkey

In Venezuela, as in all cultured peoples where the table is a place of home and social recreation, and where religious sentiment is combined with the deep imperatives of tradition, Easter celebrations take on truly joyful contours.

The Aristocratic Bienmesabe

The people of the colonial period, noble, conservative, measured and solemn, always given to discussing preeminences of rank and prestige in the salon, traditionalist and proud, used to eat opulently. Gentlemen and ladies ate with classy dishes.

The Nirgueña Skirt

Nirgua, which has politically belonged to Yaracuy for eight decades, has a culinary confection that is entirely its own, the "skirt." The territorial portion mentioned, despite this jurisdiction that was imposed on it, if we stick to certain externalizations...

The Provincial Ajiceros

Not to the extremes of the people of Mexico and Chile, where Venezuelans enjoy the consumption in an unusual way they are quite fond of chili peppers. In the country there are many kinds of sizes, appearances and different colors. Some have popular names…
