This week we continue our culinary travels by flying all the way to Argentina to experience an asado! Family, friends, and delicious food is always a great combination; so we have gathered a couple great recipes for you, in order to have your very own asado!
Argentina is the eighth-largest country in the world and covers most of the lower part of South America. Argentina is bordered by Uruguay, Brazil, Paraguay, Bolivia, and Chile. The country is known for exporting some of the highest quality wine, world-famous soccer players, and of course beef.
ASADO
Argentines are very passionate about their asados (Argentine BBQ). The star of any asado is of course the high-quality Argentine beef ribs and chorizo cooked over smoldering wood coals. If you are not able to find a woodfire grill or argentine beef one easy way to bring the flavors of Asado to your kitchen table is the must-have sides/salsas found in every parrilla (Argentine restaurant). Those are of course chimichurri and Criolla.
