In my world trip in 2014 I had the good fortune to taste a lot of local food especially in Argentina, since my girlfriend Marcela has cooked for me. In general, the food in Argentina plays a very important social role, as you invite friends and family to an asado again.

Asado, the Argentinean grilled meats

Probably the most popular foods in the Argentine is the beef that you usually grilling, what one calls Asado. Almost all supermarkets offer a wide range of fresh meat.

For large events the whole animal is grilled slowly, a procedure lasts several hours.

Almost all parts of the cow are verwerdet and the big difference between European and Argentinean beef is how it is cut and cut.

The influence of Italian cuisine

Italian immigrants at the time have also brought their penchant for pizza and pasta, so you can enjoy these dishes überaall in various variants in Argentina. The best tasted my homemade gnocci of Marcela and Mauri.

The major competitor of Hamburg is the lomito, a kind of warm sandwich with beef, ham, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce and mayonnaise.

Sweet on Sweet

The second great culinary passion of Argentines are sure the sweets of which include most of Dulce de Leche, a caramel cream.

Furthermore, there is in every bakery a wide variety of cakes, biscuits and chocolate .... who we not this weak?

Very famous are the Alfajores, 2 cake slices filled differently (usually with Dulce de Leche) and coated with white or dark chocolate with or without Nußsträusel.

Mate

Now I must write a few lines to the national drink Mate course also. Here is a slightly bitter herbal tea, which is drunk around the clock. The Argentines also constantly carry their thermos around with it. The tea is drunk from a vessel that is made out of a pumpkin. You take a metal straw that includes a screen below. Drinking is seen is socially very important and the vessel is passed.
