"Pandeyuca (Cassava bread) is a type of bread based on cassava starch and cheese, typical of southern Colombia and the coastal region of Ecuador"
Inspired today by my mom cuisine (La cocina de mamá) I will show you, how to make Pandeyuca
40 Minutes
20-25 portions
A traditional breakfast in some Colombian regions consists of hot chocolate, cheese, and some pastries such as pandeyuca, pandebono, buñuelo almojabana, and so on. Moreover, Colombians eat these pastries during the day with coffee, natural fruit juices, or any soda (Coke, sprite, Ginger.)
While in Guayaquil, Ecuador, they eat Pandeyuca with yoghurt, hold on, Whatttt? Yeah, it was my reaction too. Not kidding, it sounds weird, but I’ve tried it, and it's good. As I said, they also eat them during the day.
For Latin people, #breakfast is very important. The first meal of the day comes mainly with dairy products, eggs, bread, arepas, tortillas, or plantain dishes.
As in our countries, fruits are harvested are all year round, do not be surprised to have natural fruit juices daily at breakfast.
“Although in Colombia we have a large #coffee production, everyone does not drink as much coffee as expected, at least 70% of Colombians include coffee at breakfast. For example, my family tends to drink hot chocolate instead”.
