YOU ARE MY HERO. Enough said.

Here lately I have fell in love with you and your blog. I read in one of your post earlier that you felt homesick and were going to the Latin Store. Totally my kind of day today… I am totally homesick and wishing abuelita was here to spoil me… But since she’s not ‘chocolate y arepas’ as soon as i can come back from the Latin Store!

Thankyou so much for taking the time to do all these. I bet your husband feels like he hit the jackpot with you! (Saying that because i have made about 4 of your recipes and my fiance thinks he’s the luckiest man on Earth… and I definitely wouldn’t say I am a good cook!)

So seriously… thank you!

Tambien se puede utilizar queso mejicano como el queso fresco, le da un sabor mas de campo….Also try it with a type of mexican cheese called queso fresco….. yummy

Just wanted to give you guys an update on this recipe. I tried it last weekend just as Erica wrote it but I added two thin slices of honey ham and one slice of mozzarella cheese. They were out of this world!

I made these this weekend for breakfast and they were deeeelicious! Just like the ones we eat in Medellín. The one thing I would change is to add a bit more salt to the masa but that’s just a personal preference in taste. I also ended up cooking the arepas for about 5 minutes per side before adding the cheese, 3 minutes were not enough. A couple of tips for anyone who is not familiar with Masarepa, make sure you add the water slowly and see how much more or less you may need as you knead, don’t throw it all at once. Also, let the arepas rest before cutting them and adding the cheese. Thanks Erica, this was a wonderful recipe!!!

Has anyone ever had the arepas con quasi at the airport in Bucaranga? Those were my very favorite! Would this recipe be similar?
