Happy Valentine’s Day!
We love celebrating love, whether it’s on a fixed day like today, or any other day of the year. So here’s a list of our sexiest dishes to spice up your V-Day celebration or to make for your loved one any time you want to make him/her feel loved and special.
Cheers to love!
1.Palta rellena (stuffed avocado). Avocados are said to be extremely aphrodisiac. The aztecs called its plant “ahuacatl” or “testicles tree”, because of the shape of this fruit, commonly known as a vegetable. Catholic priests in Spain thought it was so obscene and sexual because of it’s shape, that they banned it for a long time. It is said that its aphrodisiac effects rest particularly in the seed.
2. Cebiche. An everyday dish, all of us know that it has been created to enhance the mood for love. And if it is made with seafood it´s more effective than fish alone.
3. Rocoto relleno (stuffed rocoto). This is an extremely spicy dish from Arequipa (south of Lima), and it is known to represent the fiery Misti volcano from the region. An entree full of burning passion.
