El Salvadorian Pupusas

Pupusas are a staple in El Salvadorian cuisine. They are thick, corn patties stuffed with beans, cheese, beans and cheese, or beans cheese and pork (called pupusas revueltas) and served with tomato sauce and curtido. For this recipe, I am making them with beans and cheese.

Salvadorian Quesadilla Cake

No, no tortillas were harmed in the making of this cake. It is similar to a pound cake and gets its unique flavor from a small amount of parmesan cheese. I was first introduced to this cake by my friend Rina and was so happy when I stumbled upon the recipe. It is especially good with coffee for breakfast. From Gourmet

El Salvadorian Bean and Cheese Pupusas

Pupusas are, in my opinion, El Salvadorian comfort food! A pupusa is like a thick corn flour pancake filled with either beans, cheese, beans and cheese, or beans, cheese and pork (which is called Pupusas Revueltas).
